Dubrovnik was only about an hour from the Montenegro border on the return trip to Split after from Turkey. It was late September, and the high temperatures had moderated. Also there were a lot fewer tourists visiting.
Hence, it was a good time for this tourist to visit this famous city.
While the old city is the tourist focus of Dubrovnik, the new town is vibrant with lots of cafes and access to beaches.
Heading north along the coast toward Split in late September was a beautiful ride. In mid-August, an attempt to travel south from Split just led to gridlock and frustration.
There are beautiful views of the offshore islands and quaint villages and yacht harbours along the way.
One of the beautiful small towns is Omis. It’s only 25km south of Split and sitson the estuary of the Certina river.
Unfortunately, the skies opened (one of only a few wet days I had in 3 months of travel) at Omis, so exploring the town and its beaches was limited.
That put me back in Split, and as September was drawing to a close Iqas on the night, ferry back to Italy.

Interesting architecture… and some serious yachts in the harbour!
Great shots Mic (even the rainy ones!) Omis looks particularly lovely. I’ve also worked out why my comments weren’t going through; all to do with my ancient version of Safari on my 12 year old iMac!
Well done. Unfortunately, you are still coming up as Someone in my comments, but i think I know who you are!!!!
Thanks for these Croatia blogs Mic! Plenty of ideas for our trip. Cheers, Pauline
