The route
A flexible day — not a fixed timetable.
The day flows in this order, but the skipper adjusts pace, stops and timing based on the wind, the sea, and how busy the cave is.
- 1
Depart Hvar Town
Meet at the harbour, quick safety brief, and out of the bay on the Nuova Jolly.
- 2
Cross to the Vis side
A direct run across to the Blue Cave area. Pace and route depend on the wind and sea state.
- 3
Blue Cave
Approach the cave when conditions allow. Cave entrance is run by the local concession and is a separate ticket — David will handle the timing on the day.
- 4
Vis-side stops & swimming
Quiet bays for a swim and a slower moment, chosen based on the wind and how busy the area is.
- 5
Optional lunch stop
If you want to stop somewhere for lunch on the way back, tell David in advance and he'll suggest options.

Return to Hvar
Back into Hvar Town in good time. The exact rhythm of the day stays flexible.

Meet the boat
The Nuova Jolly — the right boat for a Blue Cave day from Hvar.
The Blue Cave route is a real crossing, not a short hop. The Nuova Jolly is the boat David runs this day on because it handles the open water comfortably and keeps the day relaxed rather than rushed.
- Comfortable on a longer crossing — important for the run between Hvar and the Vis side.
- Stable and quick, so you can adjust the route without losing the day to slow transit.
- Open layout that suits couples, families and small groups for a private day.
- Easy to swim from when you stop in a quieter bay.

Important to consider
What's worth knowing before you book.
Sea and weather decide the day
Wind and swell change quickly in this part of the Adriatic. The route, pace and stops are adjusted on the day to keep things comfortable.
Cave access isn't guaranteed
The Blue Cave is run by a local concession and entry depends on conditions and queueing. Cave entrance is a separate ticket. David will give you the realistic picture before and on the day.
It's a real day at sea
This isn't a fixed-minute attraction. Crossings, swim stops and timing flow with the conditions — that's part of doing it properly.
Honest answers in advance
If conditions look poor for your date, David will tell you straight and help you plan around it.
