I thought that I’d l give a little bit more of an insight into Cavtat (pronounced “Tsavtat”), where we have now decided to extended our stay to around the 20th November. The village, well more specifically for us the harbour, is crescent shaped and bordered by the Adriatic on either side. It houses some beautiful architecture, wonderful restaurants and a pleasant pine lined walkway, that sweeps around the cliff tops from one side to the other, with occasional steps descending to several small, stoney beaches. There’s also a 15th Century church “Our lady of the snows” attached to a Franciscan monastery, each modelled in a interesting gothic style, It’s also one of our favorite swim spots. We’ve taken to doing a once around the peninsula early morning, which takes just under an hour to complete. We then stop to pick up some fresh fruit, veg and fish from the market before clmbing the hundred steps back up to our apartment.
