The fastest way from Hvar town to Split. Book your ticket now!
The journey from Hvar Town to Split is a stunning reverse trip, taking you from the island's bustling promenade back to the mainland. The high-speed catamarans take just 55 minutes, offering beautiful views as you head across the channel. Insider tip: Always try to grab a seat on the right side of the boat when departing Hvar. This side offers the best views of the Pakleni Islands, a last look at Hvar's beautiful coastline, and the spectacular approach to Split's port, with Diocletian's Palace coming into view. Since the route is passenger-only, you'll avoid the slower car ferries, but remember to purchase your ticket well in advance, especially during the peak summer months of July and August. The Hvar port can be crowded, so aim to be at the catamaran pier (Town Promenade) at least 30 minutes before departure.
