The Blue Cave is the headline, but the real appeal is the sweep of the day: five island stops, short swims, scenic boat rides, and two hours in Hvar. It packs much of the central Dalmatian coast into one long outing from Split.

I like the chance to swim at Stiniva Bay and Budikovac, and I like that fuel, crew, insurance, fresh water, and snorkeling equipment are included. The drawback is the pace. Ten hours with several stops leaves little room at each place, and the boat ride may not suit anyone with back problems.

A practical warning: the Blue Cave admission ticket is extra, and one verified booking specifically noted that fresh water was not provided as expected. Bring cash, and confirm the water arrangement before departure.
