Set off from Split to discover the jewels of the Adriatic: hidden beaches, charming villages and untouched nature on Croatia’s most beautiful islands.<\/h5>\n

Split and the magic of Croatian summer<\/h2>\n

When we think of Croatia, we picture a turquoise sea and white stone cities, with an ancient history that can be felt in every corner. But Croatia is much more. In the heart of Dalmatia, Split<\/a> is the gateway to an unforgettable summer. Here, you can experience the authentic Mediterranean way of life, enjoy quiet beaches even in August and benefit from more affordable prices than in other southern European destinations. The warm and welcoming atmosphere makes everyone feel at home.<\/p>\n

Split is not only impressive for its Diocletian Palace, lively seafront and delicious local cuisine. It is also the ideal place from which to explore some of the most scenic islands in the Adriatic Sea. Hvar, Bra\u010d, Kor\u010dula and Vis: all names that evoke sun-drenched evenings, secluded coves, cobbled streets and the gentle lapping of waves. Just a short ferry or catamaran ride from the city, these islands are the perfect place for a day trip… or a lifetime.

Hvar: glamour, lavender and secluded coves<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Hvar is undoubtedly the most famous island in Croatia<\/strong>, and deservedly so. The island’s capital, also called Hvar, combines the glamour of luxury yachts with a charming old town full of Venetian palaces. Visitors can enjoy stunning views from the fortress high above the town and sample the best local wine on the terraces.<\/p>\n

However, beyond the elegant bustle, the island has a more serene and authentic side. Inland, lavender fields perfume the air, while small coves such as Dubovica<\/strong> and Zarace<\/strong> beckon you to dive into their crystal-clear waters, away from the crowds.<\/p>\n

\"Hvar<\/figure>\n

Getting there<\/strong>: From Split, there are daily ferries and catamarans (journey time approx. 60-120 minutes). If you’re looking to take a car, the traditional ferry is the best option. If you prefer speed, however, the catamaran is ideal.<\/p>\n

Bra\u010d: The most famous beach and so much more!<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Just 50 minutes by ferry from Split, the island of Bra\u010d is famous for its iconic Zlatni Rat beach<\/strong>, also known as the Golden Horn, located in the village of Bol. This ever-changing white sandbar is one of the most photographed landscapes in Croatia.<\/p>\n

But Bra\u010d is much more than a postcard. The island’s interior is dotted with stone villages, such as \u0160krip, where you can visit the museum. There are also ancient olive groves, which produce some of the finest oils in the country. Climbing Vidova Gora, the highest point of the Adriatic Islands, is also worth it for the breathtaking panoramic views.<\/p>\n

\"Zlatni<\/figure>\n

Getting there<\/strong>: Frequent ferries connect Split with Supetar, the main city of Bra\u010d (about 50 minutes). From there, you can either rent a car or take a bus to other parts of the island, such as Bol.<\/p>\n

Kor\u010dula: little Dubrovnik<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Kor\u010dula, nicknamed \u201cLittle Dubrovnik\u201d after its walls and medieval network<\/strong> of narrow streets, combines history, culture and natural landscapes. Legend has it that Marco Polo was born here, and his house-museum<\/a> can be visited in the old town.<\/p>\n

The beaches of Kor\u010dula are delightful: Pupnatska Luka<\/strong> is a hidden gem, with white sand and pine trees all around. In addition, inland villages such as \u010cara and Smokvica<\/strong> offer tastings of local wines, including the renowned Po\u0161ip variety.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Getting there<\/strong>: From Split, there are direct catamarans to Kor\u010dula (about 2.5 hours). It can also be reached by ferry by stopping at Hvar or Vela Luka. If you have time, you can even combine your visit with a short cruise around the islands of southern Dalmatia.<\/p>\n

Vis: the secret island<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Vis was closed to tourism for decades due to its use as a military base, which helped preserve its authenticity. Not only is it the most remote island from the coast<\/strong>, it is also the most mysterious. Vis is the perfect destination for those seeking tranquillity, unspoilt nature and a laid-back atmosphere.<\/p>\n

In Vis and Komi\u017ea, you can experience the atmosphere of a traditional fishing village that has stood still in time. From Komi\u017ea, you can visit the Blue Cave<\/strong> on the neighbouring island of Bi\u0161evo, where the sunlight turns the water into a fluorescent spectacle. And for those who love the sea, beaches like Stiniva<\/strong> \u2013voted one of the most beautiful in Europe\u2013 offer a unique experience.<\/p>\n

\"stiniva<\/figure>\n

Getting there<\/strong>: There are daily ferries and catamarans from Split to Vis (about 2 hours and 15 minutes). As there are fewer services than on other islands, it is advisable to book in advance, particularly during the summer months.<\/p>\n

An unforgettable summer begins in Split<\/h2>\n

Exploring the islands from Split offers so much more than just an excursion: it allows you to experience a different pace, more relaxed and closer to nature and the things that matter. From the discreet luxury of Hvar to the unspoilt charm of Vis and the natural beauty of Bra\u010d, each island has something to offer that will make you want to return time and time again.<\/p>\n

With Volotea, flying to Split is only the start. What follows is a medley of golden memories, Mediterranean scents and endless blue horizons. This summer, let the Adriatic breeze carry you away and discover the islands that will make you fall in love with Croatia forever.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
