Experiencing Dubrovnik, Croatia with API
Destination Overview
Study abroad in Croatia in the beautiful city of Dubrovnik! Located on the southern tip of Croatia’s Dalmatian coast, Dubrovnik is known for its charming old town, medieval architecture, and gorgeous beaches. Come explore this (re)emerging corner of the Mediterranean and study abroad in Croatia with API!
Though it is a relatively new country in its own right, Croatia has been an influential and important part of European politics and culture for hundreds of years. Independent now for many years and fully recovered from war and division, Croatia is fast losing its status as one of Europe’s best-kept secrets!
