It serves as the gateway to the stunning medieval city of Dubrovnik and the Adriatic coast. While it officially earned its new name in 2023, honoring the renowned scientist Roger Joseph Boscovich, locals still often refer to it as u010cilipi Airport. This modern airport boasts Croatia’s longest runway, a testament to its capacity to handle heavy long-haul aircraft. You might be surprised to learn that before Dubrovnik Ruu0111er Bou0161koviu0107 Airport graced this site, a much smaller airfield operated nearby in Gruda.

The airport we see today is a far cry from its humble beginnings. Dubrovnik Ruu0111er Bou0161koviu0107 Airport stands as a symbol of progress, connecting this historic Croatian gem to the wider world and playing a vital role in boosting tourism in the region.
