Disabled Holidays in Dubrovnik

A view across the roofs of Dubrovnik, Croatia, and its Old Town

Steeped in maritime history and basked in Mediterranean sunshine, Dubrovnik is a spectacular holiday destination for lovers of culture, breathtaking views and fine beaches.

The city’s terracotta-roofed buildings and sparkling seas have been attracting discerning visitors for centuries, with luminaries such as Lord Byron and George Bernard Shaw naming it the “Pearl of the Adriatic” and “a paradise on earth”, respectively.

Today it’s lost none of its charm, especially within its wonderfully preserved walled Old Town (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), which is one of the best preserved in Europe.

For the holidaymaker, the Old Town serves as a handily compact area to experience the best Dubrovnik has to offer, with its impressive churches, fountains, gardens, intriguing museums, designer shops and accessible restaurants.

Accessible attractions in Dubrovnik

The Old Town is served by two accessible entrance gates, one on either side of the city: Pile and Ploče. Accessible attractions inside the walls include the Cultural History Museum, which is housed in the elegant Rector’s Palace, and Dubrovnik Aquarium, home to all manner of colourful sealife.

Although some areas of the Old Town feature steps and steep streets, a great deal of it is flat and wheelchair traversable, including Stradun, the wide central thoroughfare; the Ulica od Puca area, and around the harbour.

Outside the Old Town, the most popular thing to do is ride the Dubrovnik Cable Car, which takes visitors up the adjacent Mount Srd for spectacular views over the city, its verdant islands and the gleaming Adriatic. There are wheelchair-accessible gondolas to transport guests to the upper station, where they’ll find a panoramic restaurant, souvenir shops and binocular telescopes.

Dubrovnik is also blessed with a number of popular beaches scattered along its coastline. One of the best is Copacabana Beach, a half-moon pebble offering with crystal-clear waters and plenty of cafes and restaurants to choose from. It’s also the only beach in Dubrovnik with a wheelchair lift, making it a great option for visitors with mobility requirements.

Farther afield there’s Trsteno Arboretum, which lies 12 miles to the northwest and is reachable by bus from Dubrovnik. The gardens are famous as one of the filming locations for HBO’s Game of Thrones, which also made extensive use of the Old Town’s city walls to portray the fictional settlement of King’s Landing.

Getting to Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik can be reached by direct flight from both London Gatwick and London Stansted, with connections available from regional airports. Direct flights take approximately 2 hours 45 minutes. The airport is located 13 miles outside of Dubrovnik, with wheelchair-friendly transfers available to the city.

Accessible transport in Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik has both accessible public and private transport in the form of wheelchair-friendly buses, equipped with an entrance/exit ramp, as well as private taxi vans with automatic lifts for easy access.
