Zaton is nestled in the shade of centuries old pine forest on the banks of the beautiful sandy beaches with crystal clear water. The beach has a blue flag that symbolises the quality of service and purity of the sea.  Shallow waters, sand and gravel shoreline make Zaton the perfect destination for families will small children who will enjoy everything the summer fun has to offer.  Near the beach there is a dense pine forest which on hot days supplies much needed shade and there are plenty of snack bars and restaurants to enjoy many local specialties.   

Visitors to Zaton travelling without small children might want to travel a little further south to reach Gof Beach.  Here you will find the clear waters expected of the Adriatic coast and isolation.  To the west, right at the end of the peninsula, there are rocks for teenagers to jump into the sea, a small cave and sometimes, a rope swing.   

Gourmands don’t need to traipse into Dubrovnik for a splendid meal, Zaton has everything you could need.  For a hearty, unfussy, traditional and tasty meal take yourself to a Konoba, the Dalmatian equivalent of a tavern. One in particular might be Konoba Vala at the north of the bay.  It offers an ample terrace with spectacular views, a small playground for the little ones and an amazing selection of food.  From salads to pizza or seafood to steaks you will find generous portions and good quality.  

The old medieval town of Dubrovnik is close by and is well worth a visit.  The Old Town has many winding streets filled with authentic and quaint shops and an amazing fruit and vegetable market open most days.  Here it is possible to book a boat to visit neighbouring islands and in particular the island of Lokrum, a stunning and uninhabited nature reserve having the ruins of a former Benedictine monastery.   A perfect place to relax and get away from it all!   

After a long day of sightseeing why not enjoy a coffee or meal at one of the many restaurants in the harbour whilst watching the boats come and go?  A perfect place for a spot of people watching.   

Dubrovnik is a mecca for history buffs!  From a coastal fortress leaning over the sea to the famous thoroughfare of Stradu, the city boasts some of the most impressive medieval architecture in Europe.  One of its most iconic sights will be the City Walls, believed to be some of the best preserved medieval fortifications in the World! Another must see will be the Minceta Tower.  Fans of Game of Throes will at once recognise the Tower as the House of the Undying in Qarth.

Finally, a highlight to a complete a day’s sightseeing would be a visit to Dubrovnik Cathedral.  Completed in 1713 it holds a large collection of relics, some belonging to the city’s patron Saint Blaise.   

The nearby town of Vodice is a famous tourist destination known for its vibrancy and diversity.  Again, you will find many beautiful beaches and pine forests.  Plava plaza is a blue flag beach with clear shallow waters perfect for families with small children and non-swimmers.  This beach has a plethora of restaurants and bars to make sure you have the best day out possible.
