The day

What the tour covers

This is the showpiece boat trip of the Dalmatian coast, and it runs from Trogir as well as Split. See it alongside the other options on our day trips from Trogir guide.

The Blue Cave on Biševo

A sea cave where sunlight refracts through an underwater opening to fill the water with an electric blue glow. You transfer into a small local boat to go inside — the highlight, and the reason to go on a morning departure for the best light.

Vis & the Blue Lagoon

The farthest-out inhabited island, with the fishing village of Komiža and Mamma Mia! filming spots, plus a snorkelling stop in the turquoise shallows of the Blue Lagoon — see our Blue Lagoon guide.

Hvar town

Croatia's most glamorous island town, with its Venetian square, hilltop fortress and buzzing harbour. Most tours give you free time here to wander, swim or grab lunch before the run home.

Good to know

Make the most of it

01

Go on a morning departure

The Blue Cave glows brightest near midday, so earlier boats reach it in the best light and before the queue of small boats builds.

02

Carry cash for the cave

The Blue Cave entrance fee is sometimes not included in the tour price, and Komiža and Hvar are easier with some euros for lunch.

03

It's a long, fast day

Speedboats are exhilarating but exposed — bring a layer, sun protection and motion-sickness tablets if you're prone. Not ideal for very young children.

04

Book early in peak season

The best small-group speedboat tours sell out in July and August. Reserve ahead with free cancellation to stay flexible on weather.

Stay close to the harbour

Tours leave early from Trogir or Split, so a central base means a short walk to the boat. See our best hotels in Trogir guide.
