Split to Hvar 7 Day Bareboat Itinerary

7 Day Split to Hvar Bareboat Itinerary
Charming Croatia has quickly become the destination of dreams, with film-set like landscapes and an up and coming nightlife scene, as well as fine restaurants serving the freshest food prepared with local ingredients. The following itinerary covers a larger area of the Southern Dalmatian cruising ground and includes a few longer passages. It is feasible, although some legs may be weather dependent, but worth considering if you are keen to venture further afield.
Day 1: Kastela to Milna
Brac is one of the more mountainous islands along the Dalmatian coast with the highest peak on the Adriatic. Your first stop in Milna is just under two hours sailing from Split and a popular choice with yachties. There are two choices of mooring, either on anchor in bays around Milna and Bobovisce or in the ACI marina within the town itself. This small town has a good shop and a few restaurants, with Milna cathedral a short walk away from the town also being worth a visit the following morning, for those wishing to explore further afield.
Day 2: Milna to Vis
Your next destination is the Island of Vis where you will be spending the night. It is full of unusual beaches and caves, whilst offering some of the best taverns and restaurants in the Dalmatian region. Vis was once a Roman outpost called Issa and was one of the first Roman settlements in these parts. This small city has numerous examples of Roman architecture and a traditional food market with great seafood. Your stop for the night is the town of Vis, where we would suggest an early evening stroll around town, followed by a welcome meal in one of the restaurants, all offering a selection of delightful dishes.
Day 3: Vis to Komiza
The southern side of Vis island offers a great deal of choice when choosing a spot to stop for a swim. Each of the bays listed are an unusual combination of rock and slate formations and pebble beaches, specific to this area, and are generally out of the way of the majority of visitors, making this a wonderfully secluded spot. The Blue and Green Caves are a must see when in this part of the Adriatic; the Green Cave is an unusual natural wonder which is well worth a visit while sailing the southern part of Vis.
Day 4: Komiza to Zaklopatica or Skrivena Luka
From Komiza, you are in for a longer stretch of sailing to the more remote island of Lastovo and an opportunity to try the lobster here; the Lastovians are particularly well known for their lobster and Skrpina fish and have their own expert grilling methods! Depending on how well you are progressing it might be worth going the extra mile to Skrivena Luka; the 'Hidden Port' used to be a pirate hideaway in past times, as the mouth of the bay is almost unnoticeable when sailing along the coast of Lastovo. This also means that the bay provides exceptional shelter for yachts and still waters. Although Lastovo is one of the more remote islands in the area, Skrivena Luka can be quite popular during the peak season.
Day 5: Lastovo to Korcula Town
Day 6: Vela Luka to Hvar, Palmizana
From Korcula it is around a 4-hour sail to Hvar town, the cultural center of the area. An early afternoon arrival is most likely to ensure mooring in the town itself either on the town pier or on anchor within the bay of Hvar. We would definitely recommend spending the afternoon or evening strolling around and perhaps a walk to the Fort at the top of the hill, which offers great views of the town and the surrounding hills in the evening. Alternatively, if you would like to get away from the crowds we recommend mooring in Palmizana Marina on Hell`s islands, just opposite from Hvar town, where you will find a number of interesting bays for swimming and snorkelling as well as a few good restaurants. You could then decide to do a bit of sightseeing around Hvar the morning after; break up your sail to Palmizana by stopping in one of the bays around Scedro Island, where we would recommend mooring in Zavala bay to collect some wine from the Plenkovic vineyard.
Day 7: Hvar to Kastela Marina
After a leisurely start in Palmizana you have time to go into Hvar for more sightseeing and sail back to Kastela marina in plenty of time. Final refuelling is possible either in Milna marina or on the north side of Solta in Rogac. Upon your arrival in Kastela marina, you have the option of getting the marina staff to organise a transfer to Trogir for the evening, where we suggest you take time to explore the seafront and have dinner before heading back for your last night on the yacht.
Disembark from Hvar, having had a truly memorable holiday on the incredible Dalmatian Coast of Croatia!
