The House of Vlaho Bukovac is just moments from the villa. This fascinating museum is dedicated to the Croatian painter born in Cavtat in 1855. He started his artistic career in Paris and returned to Zagreb in 1893. The Racic Mausoleum, also very close to the villa, was built in 1921, designed by the famed Croatian sculptor and architect Ivan Mestrovic using stone from the island of Brac. The Racic family were a well-known ship-owning family from the town. Our Lady of Snow Monastery by the harbour was built in the 15th and 16th centuries, with later additions.
Cavtat has a rich cultural history, with folk costumes, embroidery and traditional dances being very important in the region. These can all be seen in the village of Cilipi where, on Sunday mornings in the spring, summer and early Autumn, the locals gather in the main square in traditional costumes to sing and dance. It is very jolly. Cavtat hosts a bustling summer festival from June to September, as with many other coastal towns. It offers many cultural performances with music, dance, street performances, and more. The summer carnival takes place in early July for two days each year. The first weekend in September is klapa, which is traditional a cappella singing.
Mlini is a small, idyllic fishing village located halfway between Cavtat and Dubrovnik with a charming harbour, a lovely pebble and sand beach, cafés and restaurants and the most stunning sunsets. Mlini gets its name from the numerous freshwater wellsprings previously used to power the local flour mills. From Mlini, visitors can take a water ferry to visit Dubrovnik Old Town or visit the island of Lokrum where some of Game of Thrones was filmed. It is the ideal spot for a delicious picnic, wandering around beautiful gardens, or visiting the popular saltwater swimming location named the ‘Dead Sea’.
Dubrovnik Old Town is incredibly beautiful. It is extremely popular with its breathtaking natural beauty, rich historical heritage, and a fantastic array of restaurants, cafés, bars, and unique shops. Visitors soak up the romantic atmosphere walking along the Stradun, the main thoroughfare and its narrow streets, admire the countless monuments, taste the delicious city’s rich gastronomic delights and be left breathless with its harmonious beauty. You can taste signature dishes such as rozata, kotonjata or black risotto along with local wines. If you are lucky, you will get a table by the harbour. During the summer, visitors can enjoy the Dubrovnik Summer Festival with music, theatre and dance performances.
You should not miss a trip to the stunning Bay of Kotor. It is also known as Boka, the winding bay of the Adriatic Sea and the southernmost point of Dalmatia, bordering Montenegro. The bay’s well-preserved Medieval towns of Kotor, Risan, Tivat, Perast, Prcanj and Herceg Novi, as well as the stunning natural surroundings, are well worth the visit. The Natural and Culturo-Historical Region of Kotor was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979. There are numerous churches and monasteries to visit.
