South Dalmatia Bike and Boat

Arrive during the morning at Split Airport and take a short taxi ride to the town of Trogir which is located about 3.5 miles away.  You can check in between 2-2.30 pm and the first cruise from Trogir to the island of Šolta begins at 3 pm. The first night is spent in a quiet harbour on the island of Solta with the opportunity to take a swim after a day of travel.

This morning we enjoy a cruise during breakfast time to the lovely Island of Vis. Vis is the furthermost inhabited island from mainland Croatia. A Greek colony called Issa inhabited the island 2,300 years ago. Due to its strategic location, it was a military zone until 1995 and prohibited for foreign tourists. Today we will have the opportunity to explore the lovely island on our cycle tour.

In the morning we leave the island of Vis by boat and navigate to the harbour town of Vela Luka on the Island of Korčula. Along the way we throw the anchor for a refreshing swim stop if the weather is permitting. Korčula is regarded as one of the most scenic islands in the Adriatic, abundant in beautiful landscapes and quaint villages nestled within the green surroundings. Once we arrive in Vela Luka we can enjoy a round tour from Vela Luka to the village of Blato and back again. The night is spent in Vela Luka. 

Today we start with a relaxing cruise to Hvar town on Hvar Island. Make use of the time before the cycle tour starts and go for a little stroll through the city. Standing on the magnificent Renaissance Square you can enjoy a view up to the Spanish fortress towering high above the city. The cycle tour today will take us from the city of Hvar passing through small villages and lavender fields to Stari Grad on the opposite side of the island. The descent to Stari Grad offers breathtaking views. After a lunch break, we continue with the second part of our cycling tour through the green planes of the island to the seaside town of Jelsa. After a break for coffee and ice cream, we continue the round trip back to Stari Grad where we spend the night.

In the morning we cruise to the island of Brač, famous for its radiant, precious limestone that was, among others, used for the White House in Washington and in the construction of the German Reichstag building in Berlin. Once we have arrived at Brač, we start our bike tour from Milna to the picturesque harbor town of Postira. At first, we cycle inland through small villages and past local architectural relics before hugging the coast with spectacular views across the channel to the mainland. On arrival in Postira there are many ways in which to enjoy the rest of the afternoon. The night is spent in the quiet harbour of Postira.

During breakfast, the boat brings us to Omis. Today here are two options, a bus to where the rafting will take place in an impressive canyon or to take in another bike ride. The rafting group  will follow the river downstream in the rafts gaining a unique perspective of the canyon and its flora and fauna. Those on the rafting trip are brought back to the boat on the bus after the activity. Cyclists will enjoy a lovely bike ride around the canyon with spectacular views.

In the morning, we have one more cruise back to Trogir. Here we take a bike ride across the local bridge to the Island of Ciova where there will be the opportunity to take a refreshing last dip in the sea. We now continue back to Trogir. Once we arrive, there will be plenty of time to visit the Old Town of Trogir, listed as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site.

After breakfast departure and onward journeys.
