Cavtat
was the Epidaurus of ancient Greece and is situated about 15km from
Dubrovnik on a small picturesque peninsular covered with Mediterranean
vegetation. Few
places offer such a combination of lush Mediterranean growth, crystal
clear sea and old and new architecture. Cavtat has a rich cultural and
historical tradition including the Rectors Palace, the Baroque church of
St Nicolas, the Bukvac art gallery and the Racic mausoleum. The
beautiful seafront winds for 7 km through a pine forest and culminates in
the pretty little harbour port which is lined with attractive bars, coffee
shops and friendly restaurants.
