Dubrovnik Region  

     Between Dubrovnik and Cavtat lies a 20km stretch of coast known unofficially as the "Dubrovnik Riviera" and officially as the Zupa Dubrovacka named after the Zupa bay. Sunny and not overdeveloped, this region is predominantly agricultural and scenically stunning: arid mountains descend abruptly and then the terrain levels out as it approaches the sea. The vegetation is Mediterranean and the wealth of coves and beaches has made the region a favourite resort spot for locals and visitors. See a map of Zupa Dubrovacka.

     The principal villages of the Zupa Dubrovacka are Kupari, Srebreno, Mlini, Soline and Plat.

     Getting to the Dubrovnik Riviera by public transport is easy. Regular Dubrovnik city buses to Cavtat (No 10) stop at all the above villages.

     The tourist office of the Zupa Dubrovacka is in Mlini (tel 020-486 254) at Setaliste dr. Franje Tudmana 7.
