Loved the variety of stops and the swimming opportunities. The small group (11 of us) was the perfect size. Communication with the tour guide prior to the trip was good. Would highly recommend this great day out

Booking through Headout was easy and confirmation and digital tickets received almost immediately. The packs a lot into one day. Unforunatel due to weather conditions we were unable to visit the Blue Caves however another small island village was substituted. Also due to the weather conditions, the boat ride was rough...but again, not much the boat driver could do. We enjoyed the tour and the places we visited.

Overall good experience. Very good boat and crew. The blue cave experience is overrated and the time to travel for this is not worth it in my opinion. The rest of the day was great, beautiful little beaches, great restaurant in Hvar with amazing view and lovely swim and snorkelling experiences.

Booking of Friday, 02nd August 2024. The different stop for swimming in amazing and breathtaking places. Hvar island, and falling for Marinkovac island (incredible, just wow). We couldn't reach blue cave because of weather, we have been refunded, thanx. The blue lagon is nice but we were a little bit disappointed of dirty island, so many trashes on it. The skipper (I don't remember his name). He was so kind, gave us so many details about places, even the temperature of the sea ahh ;) and really nice to us. Gonna never forget his Croatian accent when he was speaking English ahhh! Thank for this crazy and wonderful day. Kind regards, Candice FOULEAU France 🇫🇷

We had an awsome crew with capten Anthony in carge who was safe and professional so we had a lot of fun in the day even though high waves and rough sea so the Blue Cave closed. But it was false marketing with "drinks included such as water, juice and beer - self service". We got 1 small battle of water... That was bad!

Your experience

Get ready for a wonderful day visiting 5 of Croatia's most popular and beautiful islands, along with the spectacular Blue Cave.

The mystifying Blue Cave

Almost what seems like a hidden cave, the Blue Cave was formed eons ago from the erosion of limestone. The access to the cave can only be via a boat and it is every bit worth it. The blue hues of the water reflected from the natural sunlight give it a very magical feel.

Small beach of Stiniva Bay

The UNESCO-protected archipelago of Vis on this day tour from Split is where you will first visit the island of Bisevo and the highlight of the trip: Stiniva Cove. Lined with smooth pebbles, the cove is almost surrounded by cliffs in a full circle, making it an Instagram-worthy spot.

Beautiful lagoons of Budikovac

At the next stop, the Blue Lagoon on the island of Veliki Budikovac, get your snorkeling gear and dive into the clear waters of this perfect lagoon. Like the Blue Cave, the Blue Lagoon is a stunning natural wonder and is perfect for amazing underwater selfies. If you're not taking a dip, relax on the boat and gaze at the stunning sky and cliffs in the distance.

All about Hvar!

In the area around the island of Hvar, you'll take a break at the beautiful Pakleni Islands, a chain of wooden islets that offer the most perfect swimming spots. Ask your guide and skipper to recommend lunch spots and sample local Dalmatian specialties while relaxing on the island.

Stop off in the town of Hvar and soak up unique cultural sights, such as the Fortica Fortress. Built in the early 16th century, this medieval castle towers above the town and is an excellent example of Renaissance architecture. Hvar is also called the "Croatian St. Tropez", thanks to its young crowd and party atmosphere. Spend some time exploring this eclectic town of historic attractions and modern sights.

If you're looking for a shorter tour of the islands, consider opting for the half-day tour from Dubrovnik.
