Getting from Venice to Dubrovnik by plane

By far the easiest and the fastest way of travelling from Venice to Dubrovnik is by plane. Spanish low-cost airline Volotea has twice-weekly flights in the period from end of April until November between Dubrovnik and Venice.

Getting from Venice to Dubrovnik by ferry

Note that there are NO direct ferry connections between these two cities. One of the options would be to take a train from Venice to Rome (3 h 40 minutes) and from there catch one of the planes to Dubrovnik (check available flights here).

Travellers can also take a train from Venice to Trieste, and then catch one of the daily buses from here to Dubrovnik. However, the bus journey from Trieste to Dubrovnik is rather long (20 hours), and it's not everyone's cup of tea.

Otherwise, you can take a train down the Italian side of the Adriatic to Bari and from there catch JADROLINIJA's overnight ferry to Dubrovnik. Also you can take a ferry from any other Italian port to Croatia and then continue your journey down the coast until you reach Dubrovnik.
