Bike and Swim Croatia - Summer Cycling Tour

Today, you'll travel by ferry from Split to the remote island of Vis. Founded by the Greeks in the 4th century BC, Vis was closed to foreign visitors until 1989 due to its military significance. Today, it retains its traditional island lifestyle. In the afternoon, cycle to the east side of the island to discover pebble and sandy beaches and scenic vineyards. In the evening, enjoy a relaxing walk along the waterfront or savor a glass of wine and the island's unique cuisine. Accommodation will be in Vis.

Today, you have several options: cycle the whole island of Vis, take an optional trip to the Blue Cave on the small island Biševo, paddle board to the Green Cave, or swim and snorkel on the eastern side of the island. We recommend a loop bike ride through Komiža, an authentic fishing village, and Plisko polje, a plain covered with vineyards. Feel free to explore the WW II airplane runway, secret coves, and sandy beaches on the east side of the island. Accommodation will be in Vis.

Enjoy a scenic boat transfer to the island of Hvar. After disembarking in the port of Hvar town, stroll to the Renaissance town square for a coffee. Today's ride starts with a climb along sleepy villages and the famous lavender fields of Hvar. As you descend to the north side of the island, cycle to Jelsa, a fishing village where you'll spend the night.

Choose between a scenic and easier bike ride along Ager or a longer ride to the very east of the island. If you choose the shorter ride, you'll pedal to Stari Grad, an ancient Greek colony, and cycle next to charming villages, lavender fields, and olive groves located inside the UNESCO preserved agricultural plain called Ager. Enjoy a refreshing dip in one of the numerous bays along your bike ride. Accommodation will be in Jelsa.

A short boat transfer will take you to the island of Brač. Bol is a picturesque town located just below the highest peak on all Dalmatian islands, Vidova Gora. For today's ride, we suggest a short loop to Murvica, an eco-village surrounded by stunning beaches and vineyards. A longer and more challenging ride is also possible. In the afternoon, enjoy the beautiful beach Zlatni rat, one of the most photographed beaches in Croatia. Accommodation will be in Bol.

Fuel up for the longest ride of the week. Cycle past stone villages, olive groves, and coastal roads to the north side of the island. Brač has a long and treasured tradition in stone excavation and stone masonry. Enjoy lunch in a small village and relax on one of the many pebble beaches before catching the boat back to Split, where you'll spend your final evening.

Today, your tour ends after breakfast. We hope you enjoyed your journey through the beautiful landscapes and historical sites of Dalmatia.
