    Description

    A day of highs and lows - after a refreshing swim at one of the most beautiful beaches, I experienced three punctures. Without spare inner tubes, the journey threatened to end prematurely. But the helpfulness of a local saved the day. Her father showed me shops where I found everything I needed to repair my bike. An impressive example of the hospitality of the people along my route. Additional information: On the way from Neum to Cavtat lies the historic city of Dubrovnik. The well-preserved old town with its imposing walls offers a unique experience. A walk along the city walls not only offers a view of the Adriatic Sea, but also of Dubrovnik's rich history. Another highlight is the coastal town of Ston, famous for its salt marshes and the second longest preserved city wall in the world. Here you can savour the culinary delights of the region.
