Travel to Bol

Island Brač, city Bol - Bol Harbour

The most common way to get to Bol is by boat from Split Harbour, which is easily reached on the frequent buses from Split Airport (40 mins). There is a direct catamaran from Split once a day at 16:00 (1 hour), every day of the year. Alternatively, take the vehicle ferry from Split to Supetar on the other side of the island (approx 1 hour, services hourly in season) and then take the bus to Bol (approx 40 mins). Check for the timetable of the buses. If you take ferry later in the evening you will have to take taxi since there are no buses after 19:00. For the correct bus timetable check local agencies before arrival.

In high season there are Flights to the airport on Brac Island itself which is less than 10 km from Bol and these tend to come from Zagreb early on a Saturday morning.

Get Around

Brac is a small island - it takes about 40 mins to trip from north to south and there is one roundabout on the whole island and one set of traffic lights! Buses take tourists and local residents alike around the island or you could hire a vehicle or scooter to explore.

Once you are in Bol everything is within walking distance, just make sure you have a good pair of flat shoes as the town is set on a hill.

What to See

Bol has some beautiful historic buildings including the ancient monastery and houses built by the Venetian rulers. The main thing to see is the idyllic views at every turn. If you are feeling active, Vidova Gora and the highest point on the island, is just behind Bol and gives fabulous views across the Dalmatian coast.

Top Travel Tips

• Enjoy diving, windsurfing, water sports (tubes and banana) and Bol beaches.
