Day 5 - Hvar - Bol - Split
The next stop is the island of Brač. The most famous (and most photographed) beach in Dalmatia is Zlatni Rat (Golden Horn) near Bol, famous for its ever-changing shape. It’s a great place for a swim. Bol is a typical fishermen’s village that kept the atmosphere despite being a popular visitor spot. After lunch, on the way to Split, it is possible to join an optional river rafting or zip line excursion on the Cetina river. The approach to the Split is wonderful and offers the best views from onboard. Upon arrival, join the optional guided tour of Split or explore this monumental city on your own.
