About this activity

After picking you up in Trogir waterfront or at Split old town promenade you will step aboard our speedboat for a thrilling ride to Bisevo Island, whose highlight is the Blue Cave. In order to appreciate its ethereal beauty, we'll arrive exactly at the time of day when the sunlight reflected through the sea floor bathes the entire cave in aquamarine light, while objects in the water are turned into shimmering silver.

We will also visit the Monk Seal Cave, ex home of this protected animal.

Then we'll slice through the Adriatic to explore Komiza, a picture-perfect, authentic fisherman's village on the island of Vis. There will be plenty of time for sightseeing and to have lunch. After visiting Komiža we'll cruise around to the southern side of the island to stop briefly in the unique bays where you can enjoy swimming and snorkeling.

Our next destination is the town of Hvar, one of the most beautiful harbors in the world, and a rich cultural heritage as well. Its seven-century old walls still survive, as well as many 15th-17thC Venetian era noble houses and public buildings. The easy walk around the town to discover its many charms is a delight. After enjoying Hvar town and maybe having a drink at one of its famous cafes, it's time to to return to Split or Trogir on our speedboat.

We were told when we got to the meeting point that we wouldn't be able to go into the Blue Cave because of the weather. Everyone on the tour decided to go anyway. Halfway through, they opened the cave and we were able to go anyway! It was a fun and easy day, too cold to jump in the water but we still enjoyed it! The last stop was Hvar and we decided to stay there overnight instead of returning to Split. It was a good decision because Hvar had a few things to see that we would have missed.

There are many tour packages that take you to Blue Cave and Hvar Island, this Viator Tour is different from two aspects: First, they use bigger boat with cover, so it is less bumpy, you won’t get wet and you have shelter from sun (4-5 hours of strong sun); Second, the boat captain is very savvy, he plans the tour itineraries to minimize the wait time in Blue Cave (You need to transfer to small boat in order to enter Blue Cave, sometimes you need to wait 2 - 3 hours if you time it poorly). Blue Cave is an experience you don’t want to miss, the light inside the Cave is “magical”. Hvar Island is a fun harbor town to visit, the view from the Hvar Fortress is spectacular (must go).

I really enjoyed this tour. We visited the islands of Vis and Hvar, as well as the Blue Cave, the Blue Grotto and the Blue Lagoon (for swimming), all of which were beautiful.The tour was well-organized and our guide and the boat captain were knowledgeable and skillful. It was a perfect mix of time on the water and time on shore. The only negative was the very bouncy trip from Hvar back to Split at the end of the day, due, apparently, to somewhat windy conditions, which couldn't be helped.

The 2 young men were fabulous. One of the passengers was sick and then especially ran a got medicine for him at their expense so he could complete the trip.

Beautiful day out on the water from Split! Crew were amazingly knowledgeable and made the day much better than we thought. We didn't realise you had to wait with a number for the Blue Cave, but we didn't have to do this, one of the team stayed and did this for us, and we headed to a small little fishing village nearby for a look around and a coffee! Green Cave has recently been closed to the public by the government but didn't affect us too much - instead we ended up at a different swimming spot for longer. Such a great day and highly recommend this tour!!

Tour was AMAZING! The Captain and Skipper were super friendly and gave great advice about what to do on the Islands. There was plenty of time to snorkel, swim and explore and the Captain went out of his way to find us a beautiful cave to swim in whilst waiting for our turn to enter the "blue cave"
