DAY 4 TUESDAY, LASTOVO – RAVNIK (GREEN CAVE) – KOMIŽA/VIS

Early morning departure towards Vis island, which was “off limits” to tourists for many years. Because of its unique geographical position, it was a strategic harbour for the Yugoslav navy and in this period of isolation Vis has retained a rather special charm reflecting the “‘Mediterranean as it once was” making it really interesting to see. Near Vis, there is tiny Ravnik island, where the Green Cave (approx. EUR 10.-) is situated and which was named after the unusual greenish light that reflects in the sea from the hole on the top of the cave. Depending on the weather conditions we plan to have a short swim here, and then we sail further to the town of Komiža/Vis for overnight. Komiža is a typical Mediterranean place on the western part of the island, famous for its fishing traditions and heritage. Enjoy the walk through the narrow alleys and historic aspects, or maybe walk or relax on one of the pebble beaches where the sea is fed by fresh water springs, that stretch along the whole eastern side of the Komiža bay. The town of Vis is on the northern side of the island and was developed near the remains of ancient Issa, the first urban centre in Croatia, formed by the Greeks in 4th century B.C.  Visit the remains of the Roman Baths, City museum or take a walk enjoying the view of the beautiful Villae Rusticae situated along the coast.

Overnight in Komiža/Vis
Meals: (B,L)

DAY 5 WEDNESDAY, KOMIŽA/VIS – BIŠEVO (BLUE CAVE) – STARI GRAD

Entrance to Blue Cave is to be paid on the spot (approx. EUR 10-14.- per person). We continue towards Stari Grad on the island of Hvar where records confirm that this is the sunniest Adriatic island.
