Quiet bays within a day of Split
Šolta is close enough for a short afternoon sail from Split, and Hvar a fuller day out — every bay here is recorded protected from the southeast.
This guide is written for a south-easterly.
Latest reading nearby: a south-westerly at Uvala Digidaga (Hvar), 0.3 nm from the middle of the county this guide is filed under — one place, not every stop it names.
Not every trip out of Split needs a multi-day plan. Šolta sits close enough for a short hop, and the north coast of Hvar makes a fuller but still comfortable day's sail. The bays below share one thing beyond geography: every one reads protected from the southeast.
Two different days
The Šolta stops suit a short afternoon out and back; the Hvar stops ask for a fuller day, out in the morning and settled before evening.
- Šolta: close enough to leave Split after lunch and still have the afternoon at anchor.
- Hvar's north coast: a longer crossing, better started early.
