Dubrovnik, while filled with many incredible historical and culturally-rich sites, can also be enjoyable for families and children. With many activities and beaches galore, there is always something to do for the family - from kayaking to walking down the city walls. Here are some activities families can enjoy together!
Jump in the Beach
With so many beaches to choose from, there is always something to do, especially with the kids. There is even one just a couple of minutes walk from the historical center of Old Town! Most of the beaches are shallow and sand-and-pebble beaches, perfect for children to play in safely. For those who are looking for more thrill, you can enjoy the watersport activities such as jet-skis and inflatable rides on the water.
Walk the City Walls
The walls are a perfect space for kids to explore, learn and enjoy the beauty of a city like Dubrovnik. The walk covers about 2km of walking and there is no shelter so keep those in mind when taking your family out! This wall is best explored before the midday heat, as a start to a day of canvassing and enjoying the rest of the Old Town.
Take the Cable Car up to Mount Srd
Getting to the top of the Mount, you could ride on the cable car, a treat for the eyes and fun for the kids! From on top of Mount Srd, everyone is able to enjoy the incredible view and there are even restaurants you can go to, to enjoy a nice meal to go with the sight! There are even wild horses at the top which you can find.
Visit the Market
Why not explore the local market with the kids in tow? Everyday in Dubrovnik old squares, you can find markets being set up. Here you can find local Croatian treats like candied orange peels which everyone can enjoy. You can also get fresh produce like fruits which were wheeled in and brought to the square on donkey carts!
