❖ 8:30 - Starting Your Journey: From Split to the Hvar

We begin our adventure at 8:30 AM for a voucher check at the designated meeting point: Trg dr. Franje Tuđmana 1, Split, right in front of St. Frane church. Once everyone has gathered, we'll embark on our boat and set sail for our first destination: Brac.

Bol is the oldest town along the island's coastline and is famous for its stunning white stone buildings crafted with stone used in constructing Diocletian's Palace in nearby Split.

Next, we'll visit one of Croatia's iconic beaches - Zlatni Rat Beach (also known as Golden Cap or Horn Beach). Known for its ever-shifting shape shaped by Adriatic currents and breezes, this sandy shoreline has long been revered.

❖ 10:40 - 12:30 - Hvar

Hvar Island is famed for its idyllic scenery and vibrant nightlife. Hvar has been around since medieval times; you can witness its history everywhere you turn!

Wander through Hvar Town's narrow streets and you will encounter centuries-old buildings that still stand today. Be sure not to miss Hvar Fortress, an impressive castle that has protected Hvar Town for over seven centuries; as well as St Stephen's Cathedral - an exquisite church featuring gorgeous decorations on its interior walls.

Hvar is known for its rocky coastline where you can discover hidden beaches and caves, while in summer its fields of lavender add splashes of colour. For the best views, hiking up Mount St. Nicholas can give an expansive panorama of all that Hvar offers below you.

❖ 12:30 - 14:00 - Pakleni islands

For some heat relief, we'll sail over to the Paklinski Islands. At this stop, you'll have many free hours to explore the hidden coves and plunge into the crystalline waters, before proceeding to the next attraction.
