The tourist season in Dubrovnik is continuing in fine form with September looking just as busy as predicted. In the first half of this week there were more than 17,500 tourists in the city, which is 29 percent more when compared with the same week from last year.

Official figures show that the majority of tourists are from the UK, followed by guests from the USA, Germany, France and Ireland. The Brits have really dominated the tourist scene in Dubrovnik this summer season, and with airlines coming from many UK cities in September and October the post-season should be just as positive.

And the news that the flagship airline of the UK, British Airways, will operate throughout the winter months from London to Dubrovnik twice a week will only help to boost the winter figures.
