Day 2 Vis

As you arrive in Vis by ferry, you will be impressed by the nobility and beauty of the grand palaces and the houses in white stone, which are located on the quay. Also the White House in Washington has been built with the beautiful stone of the island of Brac !

Probably you will prefer to go to Komiza on the west coast.

The island of Vis was taken up for a long time by the Yougoslavian Army who was on guard in the west. Till Independence no tourists from abroad were allowed on the island.

Though being isolated for quite a time, Vis has become rather distinguished.. In Stroncica, close to Vis, Pavel serves delicious specialities in his restaurant located in a small bay. And in Zena Glava in the mountains, Giordana prepares tasty cuttle-fish and other kinds of fish and sea food coming directly from the nearby sea.

The first Greek colony, Issa, was founded on this island and in the museum of Vis you can admire a very beautiful head of the goddess Artemis, one of the best examples of the Hellenistic period in Croatia.

Day 3 Hvar

Hvar used to be a Venetian dockyard. You will be able to trace the Venetian architecture in the small streets and in the great square flanked by the ancient dock of the galleys and a splendid church.

If you climb up to the fortress that overlooks the town, the view at sunset will make you forget the seemingly endless steps that lead to the top.

The big attraction for the tourists on the café terraces is to watch the balancing and bumping of the sailing-boats that are anchored at the principal quay. That is why it's better to go to the Palmizana marina, located on the islet of Pakleni at short distance. There is a boat service from and to Hvar till midnight.

Day 4 Korcula

On the island of Korcula you will find an abundance of vineyards and olive groves. Many peaceful creeks and small beaches are hidden on the south coast. The scenery of Korcula, with its bastions and plenty of houses covered with red roofing-tiles, represents a typical aspect of the old Dalmatian towns.

The cathedral of Saint Marc and the surrounding square, reflect the strong influence of the Venetian style. You can admire two paintings of Tintoretto inside of the cathedral. The treasure-chamber is located in the palace of the Abbey (14th century).

Right opposite you will see the Gabriellis palace (15th century), functioning actually as Municipal Museum. It has a permanent exhibition of Greek pottery, Roman ceramics and some furniture.

The Tourist Office claims that Marco Polo was born in Korcula.it is even possible to have a look at the house where he was born.
