More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the quay in Split into the salt air and the quiet clink of ropes; a low-profile luxury boat with a king-size sundeck waits while the city slides astern. The ride west toward Biševo is a slow-motion reveal — cliffs tightening, the sea turning from deep cobalt to a glassy, almost electric blue as sunlight funnels through the Blue Cave's underwater mouth.
