More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You push off from the old harbor as gulls quarrel over the wake and the marble facades of Split and Trogir slide aft. The engine hums; the sea opens into a palette of blues, each bay framed by low limestone ridges and tufts of pine. On a private speedboat you pick the day: a sleepy cove for a swim, a vineyard-tucked quay for lunch, or a quick run to Hvar’s sunlit coves.
