Overview

We’ll meet by the sea in Hvar and hop on a sleek speedboat with a small group and your local skipper. First stop: the Green Cave, where you can swim beneath a beam of sunlight shining through the ceiling — a peaceful, surreal experience.

Next is Stiniva Cove, a hidden beach surrounded by cliffs. Whether you snorkel or float in the calm water, it’s a place to slow down and soak it all in.

Then comes the magical Blue Cave on Biševo. Entering by small boat, you'll see the cave glowing in vivid blue — one of Croatia’s most breathtaking sights.

After that, we’ll visit a natural spot — a hidden bay or beach — chosen with your skipper based on the weather, season, and group’s vibe. It might be Komiža, Vis, Seal Monk’s Cave, Stončica, or a Pakleni Islands — always the best place for that day.

We’ll wrap up at Palmižana, where you can swim, unwind, or enjoy lunch by the sea. On the ride back to Hvar, the sun begins to set — the perfect end to a day full of beauty, fun, and memories.
