Keep in mind for your Dubrovnik trip

We have a few tips for you as you book your Dubrovnik boat rental, from the best time of year to rent a boat to the closest airport to the best things to do in the city before you set sail on your adventure. As you plan your trip, try to book far enough in advance to be able to select your choice of rental, as many boats can get booked up as popular travel dates approach. 

We recommend booking your trip in the spring and late summer and avoiding the peak season of July and August. Even though the weather is nice and warm during that time of year, tourism peaks in the middle of summer, so you may want to book a trip for April, May, June, September, or October, so you can experience the beautiful weather and calm waters without the hustle and bustle of crowded cruise ports and a high population of tourists. Dubrovnik has always been known to be a wonderful city to visit in Croatia, but it has grown in popularity in recent years with an influx of cruise ship stops and even more visitors who know the city as the filming location for HBO’s “Game of Thrones.” So keep in mind tourism patterns when deciding when to book. 

Before you embark on your one-week yacht charter tripthroughout the Mediterranean, take some time to explore the beauty and attractions of Dubrovnik. Because you can fly directly into Dubrovnik, there are no limitations to what you can get up to before you board your yacht. Spend a day or two meandering the historic city streets, feasting on local fare , and embracing the beauty of the coast from just about anywhere.
