Join the locals sunbathing on the coast or hike up to the nearest cliff for a thrilling cliff dive. For the best views, take a walk along the massive city walls. If you need a break from the sun, you can also visit one of the city’s many refined museums, palaces, or cathedrals to learn more about the history of the region. 

Dubrovnik is also famous for - you guessed it - serving as a filming location for the popular television series Game of Thrones.
