Benedictine Monastery Tours and Tickets

See the 'Pearl of the Adriatic' from the water on a 2.5- to 3-hour kayak tour from Dubrovnik. Accompanied by a guide, paddle past the city's medieval walls as you head toward Lokrum Island, leaving time for some snorkeling, swimming and snacks at a secluded beach cave along Dubrovnik's coastline. For an extra perk, book the evening tour and enjoy the sunset with a chilled glass of wine.

With this full-day guided day trip from Dubrovnik to Mljet, you're all set to have the ultimate Dalmatian island experience. The most densely wooded of the Croatian isles, this 23-mile (37-kilometer) island is a great spot to spend the day. Relax on the boat ride from Dubrovnik and take in the shimmering Adriatic Sea. Explore the diminutive island of St. Mary and its amazing Benedictine monastery and then spend time on verdant Mljet learning about its history from your guide.
