Day 5    THU          SPLIT - BOL - HVAR                   
Stop in Bol on Brač Island, said to have the best beach in Croatia, the Golden Horn (Zlatni Rat). This vast golden pebble beach is unique, as it changes shape and position depending on the winds. Go for a swim in the clear blue waters before sailing to the island of Hvar. Enjoy a sightseeing tour including the first public theatre in Europe (older than Shakespeare’s theatre in the UK), the Franciscan Monastery, and many more historic sights. The evening is free to explore Hvar and to dine on your own at one of the excellent restaurants (B,L)
