The engine’s low thrum and a salt-bright wind set the pace as the speedboat slips away from Split’s stone promenade. In a few hours the coastline gives way to open sea, rock-strewn islets growing closer until a cobalt mouth appears—the Blue Cave’s illuminated interior throwing an impossible aquamarine back at the boat. This is a day of contrasts: cliff-cut bays and sleepy fishing towns, wartime bunkers and lavender-scented Hvar harbour.
