The Things You’ll See!
On Blue Cave tour from Split get the ultimate snapshot of central Dalmatia. Lay your eyes on the most beautiful natural scenery in Croatia – the memorable Blue Cave on Biševo island. Enjoy the effects of light refraction created by the sun entrance into cave’s amazing silvery-blue color.
Island Vis
Witness the reflection of sun on the white floor through the water, that fills the cave with blue color and makes the objects in the water look silver.
After the Blue Cave we head towards the Monk seal cave. It is the longest cave on the island Biševo, 160 meters long and it gained its name after the Mediterranean Monk seal, a very rare type of seal, which used to reside there. After a long period of almost complete absence, only since recent years can they can be seen again in the Adriatic sea. We stop here for simply unbelievable experience of discovering hidden beauties of nature.

It was a great day of island hopping to the Blue Cave full of sightseeing, swimming and chilling, we really enjoyed. Also, expect extended transfers between the islands as well as waiting time at the Blue Cave. But day full of swimming, chilling and sightseeing is definitely worth it. Our skipper and sailor were top tour guides, thank you guys!
Stefan L –
Really enjoyed the tour, the tour organizers and guides are simply great, very supportive and helpful. During the boat ride I sprained my ankle but the Lauren the skipper took such a great care of the whole group.
Swimming was awesome and the island restaurant was fantastic. Depending on weather od how crowded it is the plan may change a bit so be flexible.

We booked our tour with this company and it was so easy, unbelievably friendly and organised!! It was easy to find the office from where we were taken to the speedboat which was perfect, everyone had enough space it wasn’t too crowded or small. The tour guide was amazingly friendly, she went out of her duty to help us, sites were beautiful and tour was so well organised!!

We booked online with this company and it was a great day trip to the Blue Cave. Skipper and sailor were amazing, very friendly and full of good vibes and with great music on board. My only critic goes to not staying longer at Stiniva Cove, I would suggest to reduce time in Hvar town and increase time in Stiniva because it is stunning.
Szalai D –
It was a perfect tour, not too long or short, really well organized. Sailor and skipper gave us all the guidance we needed, they were awesome. Maybe possibility to buy tickets for the Blue Cave in advance and avoid waiting?
Swapnil_Agaskar Mumbai (Bombay), India –
We took this trip to Blue Cave and Hvar island and it has been a fantastic experience. We were taken on a speed boat and it took around two hours to reach the Blue Cave and after to cove on island where you have free time to swimm. We had enough time on island Hvar and it was beautiful. Since I am a photographer it was true enjoyment through whole excursion, especially taking the photos of the Blue cave and endless beauty of island Hvar. What gives you the time of your life is the boat ride, the bouncing at the high speed is the highlight. I would advise to bring your swimwear and water shoes on this excursion and to ensure appropriate waterproof coverings for your photography equipment if you plan to carry it.
