Dubrovnik is a small city that exudes a unique charm on summer evenings. Imagine you’ve just watched the sunset during our private Sunset tour and want to linger in that romantic mood a bit longer. There are plenty of ways to fully enjoy your time in the Old Town, so here are a few tried-and-tested suggestions for what to do in Dubrovnik at night.
Dinner at Restaurant Panorama in Dubrovnik
Now that you’ve seen the city walls from the sea, it’s the perfect time to view them from a different perspective—above. Head to the cable car station and let it take you to Srđ Hill. We promise this experience will be etched in your memory forever. Treat yourself to a delicious snack while enjoying the aerial view of the illuminated Old Town and Lokrum Island. Just be sure to book a table in advance, as the wait times can be quite long.
Dubrovnik’s Hard Jazz Cafe Troubadour
We believe you’ll agree that jazz is the perfect music for relaxing on a hot summer night. Even if you’re not a big jazz fan, you’re sure to enjoy Hard Jazz Cafe Troubadour. It’s conveniently located in a corner right next to the Cathedral. Just follow the sound of live music, performed every night. And if you feel like dancing, feel free; you won’t receive any strange looks.
Wine Bar D’Vino, Dubrovnik
Located on Palmotićeva Street, D’Vino offers an impressive selection of both excellent domestic and imported wines, all within a cozy atmosphere. You can order wine by the glass or purchase a whole bottle. If you discover a wine you truly love, you can buy a bottle to take home as a souvenir.
Get an Ice Cream in Dubrovnik
Summer and ice cream are a perfect match. We highly recommend visiting the ice cream shop Dubrovnik, located near the large Onofrio’s Fountain, to indulge in a generous scoop (or two) of delicious ice cream. You may notice a line of people waiting outside, but don’t let that discourage you; the ice cream is worth the wait. Once you have your treat in hand, take a leisurely stroll up and down the Stradun. Enjoy observing the beautiful sights and the vibrant atmosphere around you.
Porporela, Dubrovnik
Perhaps the most romantic “free of charge” spot in the Old Town, Porporela offers the soothing sound of waves, a gentle breeze, and couples cuddling on benches. With dimmed lights and a beautiful view of illuminated yachts anchored off Lokrum, it’s an idyllic setting. If you’re in the mood for romantic music, you may get lucky and catch a local musician performing a live solo guitar set on one of those special nights. What more could you ask for?
