Island Hopping from Split
A guide to the Dalmatian islands
The Dalmatian islands are not a destination. They are a decision — to slow down, to arrive without a schedule, and to let the sea dictate the day.
This guide covers seven islands reachable from Split by ferry: Šolta, Brač, Hvar, Vis, Korčula, Mljet, and Lastovo. For each island you will find complete transport connections with timetables, GPS-referenced key locations, history, food and cuisine, accommodation, and what to buy — all filtered through the conviction that a good travel guide should tell you what most guidebooks leave out.
No fast food. No chain hotels. No attractions that exist only because a guidebook mentioned them first. Only the islands as they are — stony, unhurried, and capable of surprising you even after the third visit.
