Hours Ashore

Gat sv. Duje (St Domnius pier) and passenger terminal

The pier also handles international ferries and holds the border crossing point.

Getting into town

Walk: about 10–15 minutes, flat, along the harbour front to the Riva and the palace's Bronze Gate. No shuttle is needed. Taxis wait near the ferry port; the main bus and train stations are on the way into town.

Step-free

The harbour walk is level and paved; inside the palace there are some steps and uneven stone, but the Riva and Bronze Gate route is largely step-free.
