Ilirio's Three Caves Tour - not your ordinary Blue cave day trip! Not by a long shot.
The Blue grotto is a highlight of many full-day, generic excursions from Split or Hvar, but time spent inside is limited by the concessionaire to 5-7min. So where and how should you spend the remaining 10h of the tour? Can trips to the islands of Bisevo and Vis be tricky?

Ilirio's Three Caves Tour description
Imagine starting your dream vacation. Along with friends and family at your side, you're so excited for the day ahead.We meet at Split harbor, where you will get acquainted with the other participants of the tour, as well as our experienced skippers. The adventure begins early, when you board the speedboat and start the ride, enjoying the sun and the waves. Our first stop is Hvar town, a picturesque resort. After a short break there, we head to the Green cave on the island of Vis, known for its gorgeous color. Our skippers will provide interesting stories and fun facts about these places, and you can take snorkels to explore the tranquil underwater scenery.
After that, we head to another island -- Bisevo, home of the Blue Grotto -- and one of the wonders of the Adriatic coast. Over the course of the day, you will get to know Bisevo, starting with the Blue cave, and cruising along the northern cliffs to stop at an intimate sandy beach. We stop at Porat bay, which features a small but lovely beach restaurant where you can enjoy delicious local cuisine. After lunch, we take you to two secret locations that will inspire and amaze you. These are the highlights of the day, and you will have an opportunity to swim almost every time we stop.
The third cave, called the Monk seal cave, is next on the itinerary. It's quite different than the others, but enchanting with a mystical feel to it. Following that, we take you to Komiza, a small fishing village on the island of Vis, where you can take a relaxing walk, or purchase refreshments.Another highlight is Stiniva bay, a colorful and tranquil paradise. The final stop of the tour is on the Pakleni islands. We recommend diving, or a relaxing swim at the famous Palmizana beach.
Pleased with all the mesmerizing things you saw during the day, we head back to Split at sunset.
