Half day · private tour from Split
Relax, Swim & Enjoy — Milna & Bobovišća
A half day with no checklist: cross to Brač's west coast and settle into two of the calmest harbours on the island — Milna, the old Venetian port, and Bobovišća, a tiny inlet of stone houses and moored wooden boats. Drop anchor, swim, repeat.
The route
Routes flex with wind and sea state — the crew plans the best version of this day, on the day.
The day
Milna has sheltered sailors since Venetian times; its long, protected bay makes for the kind of flat, glassy swimming you cannot count on at open beaches. Coffee on the harbourfront, a look at the parish church, no hurry anywhere.
Bobovišća is smaller still — a poet's cove, literally: the Nazor family house sits at the head of the inlet. A couple of konobas, a handful of boats, water like a pool.
This is the trip for the day after the big tour, for grandparents and small kids, or for anyone whose ideal afternoon is a book, a swim and someone else handling the boat.
Highlights
- Brač's two calmest, most sheltered harbours

Questions about this tour
How far are Milna and Bobovišća from Split?
Brač's west coast faces Split — about half an hour by boat. Short rides are the point of this trip: more time floating, less time travelling.
Who is this half-day trip best for?
Groups that want water and calm rather than sights: families with small children, older guests, honeymooners, or day-after-the-party crews. It pairs well with a bigger island tour earlier in the week.
Can we extend it into a full day?
Yes — say so in the inquiry and we build in a konoba lunch and a third bay. The route also combines well with Šolta across the channel.
