Dubrovnik ferry port is located in the extreme south of Croatia on the Adriatic Sea and is bordered with both Montenegro and Bosnia and Herzegovina. The ferry terminal is in Gruž, about 3 km from the Old Town. All ferries to and from Dubrovnik arrive and depart from here. Dubrovnik ferry services connect the port with the other main coastal towns in Croatia as well as a popular international service to/from southern Italy. With its sublime location, overlooking the calm blue waters of the Adriatic, Dubrovnik is one of the world’s most magnificent walled cities and Croatia's prime tourist destination.
Perhaps the most beautiful and mesmerising sight in Kotor surrounds the ferry port – gliding through the stunning mountains on a 17-mile waterway is one of the most memorable ways to enter a country. The city of Kotor is found on one of Montenegro’s most striking bays, with picturesque views and towering mountains a reason to visit in themselves. Away from the incredible natural landscapes, Kotor boasts cobblestone streets ringing with the sound of tourists enjoying the museums, welcoming cafes and Venetian palaces. Come nightfall, the marble lanes glow with the lights of live music being played in bars and dance music coming from the night clubs. Bordering the Adriatic Sea, the port itself consists of four smaller bays, with a small boat service operating around the area to transport passengers across the small bodies of water. The aesthetics of the bays are striking yet also unusual, prompting it to be labelled the southernmost fjord in Europe; however, it is in fact a submerged river canyon. Other than the boat service, there is also a bus service operating around the area, and for those that don’t mind paying a bit more, taxis are known to be safe and relatively affordable. The ferry routes leaving the port run to Italy and Montenegro – most crossings are relatively short and comfortable.
