The highly recommended boat route encompasses Split – the Blue Cave – the Green Cave - Budikovac - Palmižana - Hvar - Split. One boat departs daily between May 10 until October 10 from the Split waterfront, leaving at 08:30am. On the way to the island of Biševo dolphins often swim alongside the boat and if you happen to be lucky, have your camera ready! Once on the island, guests can visit and swi
m in the Blue Cave or Blue Grotto with its iridescent blue reflections, whilst Budikovac is a little (islet) near the island of Vis and it is there that visitors can find a sandy cove for swimming. Near to this is the island of Ravnik with its Green Cave, approximately 50 meters long with a 7 meter high entrance so that boats can enter. And just when you thought that this was all a dream, then comes Palmižana, a little village on the Pakleni islands where there are various specific restaurants and bars and here guests can use their free time for lunch and a swim. This is followed by a visit to the sunniest Croatian island of Hvar, upon returning to Split. The price is 115 Euros per person which includes: the crew, fuel, tickets to the Blue Cave, water and soft drinks on board, snorkelling gear (diving equipment), safety gear, and insurance. It should be emphasised that this is a long (100 nautical miles) trip and that the boat is large (13 meters) and equipped with both indoor and outdoor areas for passengers, inclduing toilet facilities which is very important as there is no toilet anywhere else, except in Palmižana. See the best that Croatia and Dalmatia have to offer in this glorious day trip, sure to be filled with picturesque memories.
