Travel to
Hvar
Ferry transport is very popular
means of transport at the coastline. The Croatian
coastal towns and cities are served by ferry
and ship services. Islands that are inhabited
are connected with the mainland and other islands
by various ferry services. Off season traveling
is restricted, but seasonal (summer) travel
routes tend to be more frequent and some of
fast hydrofoil/catamaran services are added
too.
If you want to reach island Hvar (and don't
have your own boat) you should travel from Split
(capital of Dalmatia), Drvenik (small town on
Makarska Riviera), Ancona (Italy) or Pescara
(Italy) by ferries or catamarans. This is the
only way to come to the island. There are daily
ferry lines from Split to Stari Grad and from
Drvenik to Sucuraj, as well as catamaran lines
from Split to Jelsa and from Split to the town
of Hvar.
Out of season ferry from Split to Stari Grad
sails 3-4 times a day and from Drvenik to Sucuraj
6-7 times. During summer season ferry from Split
to Stari Grad sails 4-7 times a day and from
Drvenik to Sucuraj 12-20 times. Ferries from
Italy sail only during summer season.
