2.Blue Cave, Vis & Hvar Full-Day Trip by Speedboat

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 976 reviews · 10 hours · from $147

Spend 10 hours speeding from Split to the Blue Cave, Komiža, Stiniva Cove, Budikovac, the Pakleni Islands, and Hvar. English-speaking guides such as Angela, Patrik, and Gabriela help manage cave queues and weather changes. Bring cash, swimwear, sunscreen, and a jacket for the fast ride home.

“It was unfortunate that we couldn't see the Blue Cave due to strong winds, but it was still an amazing day. Angela and Vlado served as an excellent tour guide and skipper respectively, navigating us safely through moderately rough seas, in comfort, while sharing interesting historic and cultural information and tips for each stop. I personally would've preferred more time at Hvar and Marinkovac(?) to swim, as the Blue Lagoon was not very swimmable due to strong winds, but otherwise a well-planned journey.”

“The only things worthwhile on the tour are the blue cave and Hvar Town. There is a stop in the blue lagoon which is ok, but only having 1 hour in Hvar after 3 hours on a small island with 2 restaurants and a beach was frustrating. Wine tasting felt like a sales pitch.”

Just be aware you spend a lot of the day in transport. The bus journey was fine, but was 2.5 hours each way. The speedboat was over an hour and pretty uncomfortable as it was cramped. But transport is necessary to get to the beautiful islands so worth it.”

“I have to be honest, we did this excursion in August 2025, and I feel like I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. For 80 euros per person, we got a taxi-driver on a speed-boat, who very reluctantly drove us to all the indicated locations. When you arrived to each location, he would just say, "Get off, this is this, and we will leave in 20 minutes". He was supposed to provide us with snorkeling equipment, but it was never offered. Sometimes he would say we'd stay at the beach for 30 minutes, but after 10 minutes, he'd say we had to leave. Sometimes it was a short 10-minute stay, but…”
