South Dalmatia - Dubrovnik
Dubrovnik, the pearl of the Adriatic, is renowned for its beauty, marbled streets, monuments, palaces and impressive fortified walls. It rivalled the powerful Venice in the 14th century and successfully organised the independent Republic of Ragusa until the arrival of Napoleon in the late 19th century. The UNESCO protects the ancient city rich of cultural and historic legacy and has entered it into its World's Heritage List.

Dubrovnik surroundings have also a lot to offer. The Konavle Region is the southernmost region of Croatia which is famous for its folklore traditions, gourmet meals and picturesque small villages such as the medieval town Cavtat, the ancient Epidaurum of the Adriatic; the predecessor of Dubrovnik.

North of Dubrovnik stretches the beautiful Elaphiti Archipelago, of which only 3 islands are inhabited Lopud, Kolocep and Sipan. The Peljesac Peninsula where oysters and mussels can be freshly tasted in Mali Ston as well as the "Famous Reds" such as the Dingač and Plavac wines. Further north, the island of Korčula, said to be the native place of Marco Polo and Mljet, a retreat of untouched nature and wanderers on the track of legends about Ulysses and St. Paul.

Dubrovnik’s infrastructure keeps on improving and attracts worldwide congresses as well as incentive organisers and the elite travellers.
