Please note: Tonight's port can be substituted for Stari Grad if Hvar harbour has reached its capacity. This is controlled by the Port Authority. In this event, transfers to and from Hvar will be organised for the guided walking tour.

DAY 6 Hvar - Bisevo - Vis
Your first stop today will be the spectacular Blue Cave on the island of Bisevo. The cave’s natural underwater entrance creates a magical deep blue light that engulfs the interior. After this extraordinary experience, head to the enigmatic and unspoilt island of Vis. Closed to the public until 1989, Vis has remained relatively untouched by tourism and development and has retained much of its authentic charm. On arrival, spend the afternoon at leisure experiencing the island’s natural beauty firsthand. Perhaps visit the Archaeological Museum located in a former fortress built by the Austrians in the 19th century or take a leisurely stroll along the seaside promenade where most of the bars and restaurants are located.

Meals included: Breakfast and lunch

Please note: The Blue Cave is only accessible with small boats through an entrance just 1.5m high so unfortunately it can easily be made inaccessible by bad weather and high waves.
