About Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik, Croatia’s most iconic city, was founded in the 7th century by refugees from Roman Epidaurum (today’s Cavtat), as noted by Emperor Constantine Porphyrogenitus. It later came under Byzantine and Venetian rule before gaining independence in 1382 as the Republic of Ragusa. The city flourished as a cultural and trading hub, especially after the discovery of America opened up new trade routes. Although a major earthquake in 1667 caused significant damage, Dubrovnik’s resilient spirit led to the rebuilding of its Old Town, which still stands today as a testament to its rich history and heritage.

The mansion of Petar Sorkocevic from 1521, with Renaissance arcades on the ground floor and Gothic monoforia and triforia on the first floor dominates the bay of Komolac  where ACI marina Dubrovnik is situated. No wonder that family Sorkocevic has chosen this particular location back in 16th century to build their mansion close to natural resourses. Protected by the natural surroundings, natural spring water at the river delta of Ombla makes Komolac a place ideal for vacation to a new generation of people-yachtsmen. Now, in the mension you can find our office.

What will leave You breathless is the surroundings. Beautiful hills that surround You are closing the bay, walking through the vegetation and the activities that are in this marina just for You will prolong Your departure from marina Dubrovnik. Also, You are close to Dubrovnik, one of the most beautiful cities on the world, it would be a true pity not to visit this jewel of Mediterranean. If You are a yachtsman without land transportation, near the marina You will find a bus station that takes You to town every 15 minutes. Of course Taxi service is at Your disposal, we leave that to Your choice.

Of course, there is no time for You to see all interesting spots of this ancient town, so You will walk the Stradun and grab an ice-cream or coffee somewhere among the numerous bars along. One of the bars we recommend is famous Buza, a place underneath the South Walls, on the cliffs, actually in the cliffs. Coffee, beautiful view, short swimming near the cliffs, waving to cruisers passing by through the channel-natural stress eliminator. After You walk to old harbor along Stradun and take a rest next to Onofrie’s fountain where You can hear the old traditional sounds of fiddles from Konavle.
