Island Hopping (Split – Vis – Brac – Hvar – Korcula)

We would like to book a ferry from Vis to Korcula on Friday 25 June, but I cannot seem to get onto the website?
Where else can I book this? Thank you in advance

Update 2024: This ferry crossing is not available in 2024

Update >> Introduction of new ferry crossing:

The new fast-passenger ferry line from Makarska via Bol, Hvar, and Vis to Split will start in a few days. TP Line’s (https://www.croatiaferries.com/tp-line/) fast catamaran will have a daily, morning departure from Makarska returning in the evening on the same route.

This is going to be a great option for island hopping in central Dalmatia, its arrival schedule in Hvar will be adjusted with the departure of the daily fast route from Split and Hvar towards Korcula, Mljet and Dubrovnik.

For example, from now on, you can travel daily on the route from Hvar to Vis https://www.croatiaferries.com/hvar-vis-ferry.htm and back which was previously available on Tuesdays only.

Check relevant schedule pages for timetable updates and booking options here: https://www.croatiaferries.com/ferry-timetables.htm

Mariola, at the present, it is not possible to buy a combined ticket without having to purchase each trip individually. It may become available in the future but right now you have to buy each ticket separately.

Yes, you can take the car to Brac and Hvar islands.

Use these ferry lines:

1/ Split – Supetar (Brac)

2/ Split – Stari grad (Hvar)

3/ Makarska – Sumartin (Brac)

4/ Drvenik – Sucuraj ( Hvar)

Here are some articles to refer to:

and yes, you can leave your car in the Split long-term parking lot and get on foot passenger ferries to both islands.

Yes, there are no car ferries between any of those islands so yes, you have to get back to the mainland to access another island.

I recommend you to keep the car despite the complications to get from one island to another.

It is easier to keep the car than to try to hire a car on each island, if you even can, which mainly depends on the season of your travel.

It’s always nice to have a car on the islands to explore and detours take just about a couple of hours.

Refer to the above articles for the best island hopping options in the area.

The alternative is to use a taxi on the islands (as in the below photo – a taxi is waiting for all passenger ferries) but bear in mind that a taxi may be expensive and car rental works out cheaper is you get to multiple destinations.

Fred, Split is a large port so I’d do at least 40 minutes there just to make sure I find the right dock.

Docks in Split Port are 5-10 minutes walking apart and if you have luggage it may take longer, especially on warm/hot days – look at the map:

On the islands, in the small ports, you can come just 10 minutes earlier. You’ll be able to see the ferry arriving and if you find a strategic table/seat in a local cafe, you can sit there until the last minute, (if you wish).
