Motor from Mljet to Mainland Coast to Dubrovnik - Anchoring at Cavtat Harbour

July 20, we left our anchorage in Prozura, Mljet and headed across the Kanal toward the mainland.

There was no wind.  The water like glass.  We were pleased to motor as we could make our own breeze and stay cool on an otherwise hot day.

We passed  between the Peljesac Penninsula and the Island Sipan and followed the coast line of the mainland to Dubrovnik.

We anchored at Old Dubrovnik in the afternoon and took the opportunity to see some more of this lovely old town.

Afterward, we motored south another hour or so to Cavtat where we would check out of Croatia in the morning and head back to Montenegro.

We were fortunate to be able to anchor right in Cavtat Harbour which is so busy.  We had a lovely dinner on the boat and a great sleep as there was calm water in the harbour.


                Leaving Prozura, Mljet at around 10:30 am - The Water is like Glass



Passing through the small islands of Jakaljan on our way to the main land coast




                Cafe on the water - lots of swimmers here enjoying the cool breeze and water



                Getting Close to Dubrovnik  - The shore line changes to large hotels and resorts...



  Greek Salad for Lunch!

                 
This hotel is Huge!  It has a lift in the centre of the hotel up the side of the building to take guests from the sea to the main part of the hotel - I believe this is the Dubrovnik Palace Hotel



                Massive Cruise Ship leaving Dubrovnik Harbour


                Outside the Dubrovnik Old Wall - A cafe and swim area!

                 

We were so surpised to see this swim area - It would not be easy to find from inside the Old City
