This morning, head to the enigmatic and unspoilt island of Vis. The island was formerly a strategic military base that was closed off to tourists until 1989, and this allowed Vis to retain its authentic untouched charm. On arrival, enjoy the afternoon at leisure experiencing the island’s natural beauty. Perhaps visit the Archaeological Museum located in a former fortress built by Austrians in the 19th century, or enjoy a leisurely stroll along the seaside promenade where most of the bars and restaurants are located.

DAY 6 Vis - Bisevo - Hvar
Begin today sailing to 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.

On arrival in Hvar Town, embark on a guided sightseeing tour of this unique town where you will be introduced to the island's history, culture, and way of life. In the evening, take time to enjoy the many restaurants, bars, and cafes that line the port.

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.

In this event, transfers to and from Hvar will be organised for the guided walking tour.
