Blue Cave & Vis Island Private Speedboat Day

Race across the open Adriatic aboard a private speedboat to the electric-blue miracle of Biševo's Blue Cave, then anchor off wild Vis Island for lunch and a swim. A jaw-dropping natural wonder and a UNESCO-protected island in one day.

What to expect

Your skipper pilots a sleek speedboat south-west from Hvar harbour, the sea turning an impossible shade of turquoise before you slip into the Blue Cave's shimmering silver-and-violet chamber. Next comes Vis — largely car-free and one of the Adriatic's least-spoiled islands — for a long, lazy lunch of fresh grilled fish and local wine at a konoba. The return crossing at speed, wind in your hair and the Dalmatian coast glittering ahead, is the perfect finale. Your captain doubles as a local guide, sharing stories of each island along the way.

Good to know

Book directly with Rent a Boat Hvar well in advance in July–August; Blue Cave entry (included in the tour price) sells out early. Full-day tour runs approximately 8–9 hours — confirm all-aboard time with your ship and allow a buffer. Wear a swimsuit under light clothing and bring reef-safe sunscreen.
