Dobar dan / Bok
Walk the city walls at opening time (8 AM) to beat the cruise ship crowds. The Old Town is pedestrian-only โ wear comfortable shoes on the marble Stradun which gets slippery when wet.
Walk the Lungomare โ a 12km seafront promenade built in 1885 that connects Opatija to Lovran. The morning mist over Kvarner Bay is extraordinary. Visit the Villa Angiolina gardens for free.
๐ญ๐ท Dubrovnik Fun Fact
Dubrovnik was the first state in the world to officially abolish the slave trade โ in 1416, over 400 years before the British Empire. The city-republic of Ragusa prided itself on freedom ('Libertas') above all.
๐ญ๐ท Opatija Fun Fact
Opatija was the Austro-Hungarian Empire's most fashionable resort โ Emperor Franz Joseph, Gustav Mahler, and Anton Chekhov all strolled its promenade. The Habsburgs essentially invented beach tourism here.
