Highlights
Outing Highlights
Fast, focused island hopping
This is a speedboat itinerary built for breadth: short port calls and concentrated swim stops let you sample Komiža, Biševo’s Blue Cave, Stiniva Bay, Budikovac’s Blue Lagoon and historic Hvar in a single day.
Blue Cave and crystalline lagoons
The tour puts you at some of the Adriatic’s signature sea features — the luminous interior of the Blue Cave, the sheltered cove of Stiniva and the swim‑friendly waters of Budikovac’s Blue Lagoon.
Town time in Komiža and Hvar
Between swims there are purposeful stops for short explorations ashore — 45 minutes in Komiža and a longer 90‑minute sightseeing window in Hvar — letting you combine sea time with a taste of island life.
