Day 1 Split - Solta

If you are sailing in the middle of the summer, make sure to call ahead to get a private mooring line for free.
Day 2 Solta - Jelsa

On the way to Jelsa, pause at the beautiful bay of Zlatni Rat (Golden Cape) on Brač. Relax on a beach or stay on the boat and jump into the turquoise waters.

Day 3 Jelsa - Hvar

Sail to Hvar, the capital of the island with the same name. In Hvar you can choose to either moor in Hvar harbour, or in the nearby Marina Palmizana, from Palmizana you can easily take a taxi boat/rib into the main town.

Finish the day in one of the restaurants or join the night-life in one of the many party spots.
Day 4 Hvar - Vis
Approx 1hr sailing*
The first stop in the morning after a night out in Hvar is for a swim and unwind in the nearby Pakleni Islands. Once you have regained your balance, the destination on day 5 is Vis, the emerald isle that is furthest from the mainland. There is a choice between mooring in Vis Town, in front of the old town hall, or a little further round the bay in Kut which is quieter. The walk round from Kut to the main town is a lovely meander through delightful streets. Rent a VW beetle, a scooter or take a military excursion and explore the beauty of Vis island. In the evening dine on the one of a kind restaurant Lola just a few meters from the boats.
Day 5 Vis - Komiža

Sail around the island towards Komiža and stop at the Green Cave. Jump off the cliffs and swim into the cave, or drop the anchor and plunge into the crystal clear water.
When you get to Komiža, explore a different side to Croatia; visit the untouched village and enjoy the unique local food, where lobster is the specialty. This wonderful little town that is nestled in the middle of the Adriatic sea is situated at the base of Mount Hum (587m). It is a great view from the top, where you can find a small church and watch the sun go down. Take a taxi up if you don’t fancy the walk, there is a short path leading from the nearby road to the top (a stop here is also part of the military tour if you choose to do that).

Visit the famous Blue cave to get some memorable photos. Then sail to the Pakleni Islands and drop anchor in a beautiful cove near Marina Palmižana, relax on the boat or at one of the bars and enjoy the beautiful sunset.
