Little Blue Cave (Hvar)
Just a five-minute cruise from Pokrivenik, the Little Blue Cave is the signature moment of the Palladium Tour. Swim straight in — no need for diving, no entry fee — just swim in and catch the blue glow from inside while the boat stays anchored outside. Bring a waterproof phone case if you have one: this is the memory-maker.

Lunch in Vrboska (Hvar)
A charming harbour town often called “Little Venice”. Relaxed lunch stop with canals, bridges and stone architecture.
Recommended: Trica Gardelin (fresh seafood + local flavors).
Click to read more about Vrboska (Hvar)
Why is Vrboska special? Vrboska is one of the smallest towns on Hvar, with only a few hundred residents, and that intimacy is felt the moment you enter its harbour.
The harbour is deeply sheltered and almost completely hidden from open sea — regardless of wind or conditions, the water inside remains calm. Entry is strictly limited to slow speed (2 nautical miles), and already on the left side of the canal you’ll notice large, multi-million-euro yachts quietly moored here for weeks at a time.
The reason is simple: Vrboska is a true dead-end harbour. Its narrow canal, stone bridges and enclosed layout create privacy that is increasingly rare in the Adriatic, earning it the nickname “Little Venice”.
Just a five-minute walk from the waterfront stands the impressive Fortress Church of St. Mary of Mercy, built in the 16th century to protect the town from pirate attacks — a reminder of how strategically important this quiet place once was.
Today, Vrboska offers a genuinely authentic Dalmatian atmosphere: stone houses, boats tied along the quay, a beautiful waterfront promenade and a calm rhythm that makes it the perfect lunch stop on this route.
