I have been out alone as a women , in bars or walking in the night and I have not felt uncomfortable at any time . There is many turists here so it’s always people out and people here are really nice because they are used to turists aswell
Posted: May 19, 2025Dubrovnik is a very touristic place but the locals are hospitable and friendly. People are trustworthy. I have never had anything to worry about from the local people here. But I would like to say that in the summer there are a lot of people from different countries here.

Old town is the turist part , it’s really beautiful but expensive to eat / drink / live in . So my tips is to live and eat/ drink in lapad or gruž. It’s a part of Dubrovnik city, 10 minutes away with local traffic , and it’s really cheap in comparison to old town . But it’s as good ! Go swimming and sunbathing , but I warn you it’s not a sand beach so bring thicker mat with you if you want to :)

I felt v safe. There’s not a huge amount to do and most people are quietly and stylishly dining together. Beautiful restaurants and medieval streets. But Ive just arrived in split which feels much more partyish and lively
