A full-day private boat from Split that combines a morning in Hvar, snorkeling around the Pakleni Islands, and a relaxed stop in Solta’s Stomorska and Gornja Kruščica bay. Small-group capacity and included snorkeling gear make this an easy, scenic Adriatic option.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step aboard on the Split west coast as the city riva slides aft — the harbor smells of salt, diesel and citrus, and the crew casts lines with practiced ease. The day opens with the city of Hvar rising like a sun-washed amphitheater: cobbled streets, a fortress above and the town’s harbor humming while you explore for an hour.
