What happens after you land.
The drive to Cavtat is so short that the terminal can take longer than the road. If you arrive from outside the Schengen Area, passport control comes first. Then come baggage reclaim, the customs channel and the arrivals hall, where your driver is waiting. In peak season the passport queue is usually the slowest step.
From the plateau down to the harbour.
The airport stands on the Čilipi plateau, and Cavtat lies on the coast directly below it. The road heads down from the plateau to the Adriatic highway and then on the short side road into town, with no motorway and no city traffic.
Good to know about Cavtat.
- The harbour front is narrow and busy in summer, so the driver stops at the closest point to your door.
- Many hotels are on the Rat peninsula or the hillside above the bay; send the full address with your booking.
- Cavtat is a good base for early departures, since the airport is so close.
- From Cavtat you can also reach Dubrovnik’s Old Town by boat, which many guests use for an evening in the city.
For the sea route into town, see the Dubrovnik to Cavtat boat transfer, and for an afternoon on the water around the bay there is the Cavtat private boat tour. Other arrival options are on the Dubrovnik Airport transfers page. Quotes are itemised and sent by email or WhatsApp.
