If you want to experience a vacation that seems like you are traveling through time, then the city of Dubrovnik is the best place to go. The city, even though it was damaged severely by an earthquake in the year 1967, managed to preserve its beautiful Baroque, Renaissance and Gothic monasteries, palaces, fountains and churches. Flights to Dubrovnik from different parts of the UK are affordable and easy to find, hence it became one of the favorite summer destination for British tourists.
The old town of Dubrovnik is one of the places featured in the World Heritage list because of its well-preserved infrastructures dating back to the Baroque and Renaissance periods. There are so many things one can do in Dubrovnik aside from touring and admiring the palaces, the thick and mighty walls and the old churches. Kayaking, yachting and sailing boats can be perfect water activities for those who love to brave the sea. Diving is also an activity that interests many tourists who want to see the beautiful underwater ecosystem and historical ship wrecks in Dubrovnik’s waters.
Water polo, a water game similar to the land based game team handball, is a popular sport played vigorously in the city of Dubrovnik. There is an amateur water polo league during summer where only non-professional players can participate and tourists join the teams just to have a good time even if they are not very good players.
