Explore the Dubrovnik Region
The Dubrovnik region really offers a handful of opportunities to create new memories. From centuries-old historical sights to rich tradition and heritage to the incredible natural beauty of our region, the sea and the islands.
Zaton is in an ideal location, having both Dubrovnik and interesting smaller coastal towns on the western side within easy reach. If you are looking for a beach to enjoy your day on, you have a wide choice at your disposal: Vrtovi sunca beach in Orašac (only 3 km from Zaton); Brsečine beach in the picturesque coastal village of the same name (8 km away), the popular Veliki Žali beach, just below the highway (11 km away) or perhaps the well-known Prapratno sandy beach near Ston (44 km away), perfect for a full-day trip – visiting Ston and swimming in Prapratno.
Dubrovnik Old Town is a favourite destination of many tourists. The unique experience of walking along the famous city walls and Stradun will enrich your vacation immensely. Be sure to set aside enough time and, in addition to museums and churches, visit the famous city palaces, Sponza and the Duke’s Palace. Then walk to the old city port and to Porporela, the city breakwater. Sit on the bench and enjoy the view of the island of Lokrum.
