DAY 3 – HVAR

Your Hvar experience begins with an introduction to island life, exploring the small fishing village of Vrboska and Stari Grad on guided walking tours.

Note: The ship may not be able to dock until 7-8pm tonight in Hvar Town.

DAY 4 – HVAR to VIS

Continue your cruise with a stop for a refreshing swim in the warm waters of the Adriatic on the way to beautiful Vis Island. Until the late 80’s Vis was closed to tourists and served as a military zone for the Yugoslav army, because of this and coupled with its remoteness, it has helped preserve the island’s authenticity. Enjoy time in Vis Town to experience the island’s local food and wine, discover Greek and Roman ruins or simply marvel in the beauty of this island that featured in the movie Mama Mia 2.

Meals included: Breakfast and lunch
Note: The port of call in Vis can be substituted for Komiza because of the limited capacity in the harbour of Vis Town.

Afterwards, enjoy lunch on board and a relaxing swim stop on the way to the island of Korcula. Cruise along the length of the island to enchanting Korcula Town where, on a walking tour, you will see the mighty fortress and city walls and learn about the infamous Marco Polo and his connection to this island.

Meals included: Breakfast and lunch
Note: The Blue Cave is only accessible with small boats through an entrance just 1.5m high so it is unfortunately sometimes made inaccessible by bad weather and high waves.
