Many people have asked us how to travel from Dubrovnik to Greece, most of them lost in various expensive tour offers, contacts of taxi drivers of the area and bus timetables of the surrounding countries.
Although it's a couple of finger lengths on the map, it is quite complicated, but if you are travelling in good company it will be a great adventure and you'll look back at it someday with a big grin.
You can say that 243 days of visits by cruise ships is quite a lot and makes the port of Dubrovnik pretty busy, especially in July, August and September.
The main port with its 1200 m long quay is located in Gruž district. All intercity and international ferries run from this port as well as most of the local ferries with exception of the Lokrum island ferry and Cavtat boats which run from the Dubrovnik Old Town port. Ferries leave from the pier at the southern point (to the left of the port building) while the cruise ships usually berth to the north (right of the port building).
