In the morning we’ll cruise to the Island of Vis, with lunch onboard and a swim stop en route. Arrival to Vis is scheduled for the afternoon. Compared to other Adriatic islands, Vis is rather unique. Being an important strategic military stronghold for centuries, Vis was spared the excessive tourist development and thus retained it unspool beaches, ecological agriculture and traditional architecture. Enjoy afternoon, exploring the town of Vis, its picturesque stone streets, pristine beaches and fine taverns.
For those interested, an optional Vis Island excursion will be organized, including a visit to Komiža, a charming fishermen’s village. Reservations and payment on the spot.

However, high waves may occasionally prevent entry, which cannot be determined in advance of the scheduled visit.
For this reason, entrance fees are payable on the spot.
After a swim stop and lunch onboard, we will continue cruising along numerous coves and bays towards Hvar, the sunniest Croatian island and one of the country’s most attractive tourist destinations, known as a meeting point for international jet-setters.
Upon arrival to Hvar, a local English-speaking guide will take you on a walking tour of this unique city, introducing its rich history, culture and way of life.
