Island Vis - the outmost major island of the Dalmatian archipelago, emerging from the crystal clear blue sea, 50 km away from the Croatian and 150 km from the Italian coast, surrounded by small islands and islets is an agreeable and quiet place for your summer vacation. The climate is typically Mediterranean with long, hot and dry summers and short and mild winters. The Vis archipelago consists of some outstanding open-sea islands: Bisevo, Sveti Andrija (St. Andrew), Jabuka, Brusnik, Palagruza. With its area of 90 square kilometres and 76 nautical miles of indented shore it abounds in sandy and pebbly beaches, rocks, sea and mountain caves, picturesque hills and valleys, vineyards, small villages and two fascinating ancient towns - Vis and Komiza. All places are well connected by excellent asphalted roads leading around or criss-crossing the island and thus becoming increasingly popular for mountain biking. Blue cave

The town of Vis is situated on the northern coast of the island along a most fascinating bay of St.George, closed ring-like by a small Host
island. It is the only place on the island having a daily ferry-boat and hydrofoil connection with Split, 30 nautic miles distant coastal
town.During the summer season it is also connected with the towns on the Italian coast ( particularly Ancona).The town of Vis is a good
choice for those coming without their cars, because all the necesary facilities are at hand in the town. A pebbly beach is about 100 m
away from the centre of the town, there are also some smaller beaches on the other side of the bay, in the vicinity of a marina.
