Safety

Meet your skipper and the rest of your group at Split harbor at 8am to board your RIB. Rigid inflatable boats are constructed for extreme conditions, with hull design, and rugged construction for safe and fast sailing in a variety of conditions.

First Stop - Bisevo (Blue Cave)

After a safety briefing, enjoy the views as you cruise into the Adriatic Sea. Cut through the waves on your speedboat and head southwest to the Blue Cave on Bisevo Island. Keep an eye out for dolphins! After about 90 minutes, arrive to Bisevo island and visit Blue Cave (entrance own expense, crew will assist you with ticket purchase). Here, see the amazing effect of sunlight reflecting off the sandy bottom that creates the distinctive blue glow inside the cave.

Second Stop - Stiniva Bay

Later, sail to the west side of the island to stop at the sandy beach of Porat cove. Have free time for swimming and sunbathing here. Then do some sightseeing around the island and Monk seal’s cave. Next, head to Stiniva Bay on Vis Island, a crescent-shaped bay bordered by two curving cliffs. Short stop to swimm inside the bay and admire this stunning beauty.

Third Stop - Hvar and Pakleni Islands

Our next ride is towards Paklinjaci islands, group of small islands in front of Hvar, where we have last swimm of the day on sandy beach of Palmizana bay and have an optional lunch (own expense). Your skipper will gladly book a table in restaurant if you desire. Later dock at Hvar Town for some time to explore independently.
