Tourist Information Office
by starship
Cavtat is relatively a small town or village with approximately 1,500 year round residents. Though its physical charms are many, there are relatively few historic sights to see compared to Dubrovnik. Still you shouldn't miss what Cavtat has to offer. There are not too many signs about the place so a map would be very helpful.
The Cavtat Tourist Office is located at Tiha 3 on the short road leading to the waterfront. They can provide you with maps and give you information on attractions as well as hotels, restaurants and transportation.
Office hours during July and August: 8am to 6pm daily.
September through June:8am to 3pm Monday through Friday, and 9am to noon Saturday and Sunday.

Rozata - the croatian creme caramel
by averageyorkshirejoe
Every region in Europe seems to have there own version of the creme caramel and the Rozata is the croatian one. Its really creamy and absolutly delicious as you can see from my concentration and it is on most of the menus. Try it!! (it would be rude not to)
The Lady of Snows
by novsco61
The Gothic-Renaissance Franciscan Monastery is named after a Benedictine church that existed on island Mrkan . It was built in two periods: 1484 by Franciscan brothers, and 1502 by a noble Frank Gucetic (the version you see today).
City promenades
by Rusket
This is one of the things I remember from my first visit to Cavtat: The promenades around the two peninsulas! The one around Rat is the best one, it goes all the way round, while the one around Sustjepan ends by the south-west lover level of Hotel Croatia. The pictures are from the one around Rat, starting from the Franciscan Monastery and ending at the bus station. It is an easy walk, not much up and down, nice walkway with benches to rest and street lamps. A lot of beautiful spots along the route! And small beaches, too. It took me about half an hour to get round, walking at a slow pace.
Cemetry and Mausoleum
by sandysmith
Climb to the top of Cavtat's cemetery (Sv. Roko) to see the mausoleum of the sea-faring Racic family - a work by a noted sculptor Ivan Me?trović. It was built in 1921 wholly in stone and full of symbolism pertaining to human birth, life and death. Not only can the mausoleum with its angel sculptures be viewed but also a wonderful view out across the cemetry to sea and the surrounding coastline.
