11-Day Croatia Family Island Hopping: Brac, Hvar and Korcula
Explore Croatia's most beloved islands at your own pace, with all transfers and accommodation taken care of.
This Croatia family island hopping tour takes families through three of the Adriatic's most celebrated islands over 11 relaxed, fully independent days. Accommodation and inter-island transfers are arranged in advance, so families can focus entirely on discovering the sea, history and landscapes that make Dalmatia extraordinary. The itinerary is designed to be very easy, making it suitable for all ages and comfort levels.
Starting in Split, the route moves through Island Brac with its iconic Zlatni Rat beach and hilltop vistas, then on to Hvar with its medieval squares and lavender-scented countryside, before finishing on Korcula, an ancient walled town set among pine forests and vineyards. Each island has its own distinct character, and the fully independent format means families set the daily rhythm entirely as they wish.
Optional guided experiences are available on every island, giving families the choice to go deeper into local history, folklore and craftsmanship whenever curiosity strikes. Day trips from Korcula to Dubrovnik and from Split to Diocletian's Palace round out an itinerary that balances leisure with cultural depth. No fixed group schedules, no rushing — just Croatia at a pace that works for your family.
Tour Highlights
Spend days on Zlatni Rat, one of the Adriatic's most photographed beaches, and explore the pine-forest trails and natural pools of Island Brac.
Wander Hvar's lavender fields and vineyards, and discover the medieval Arsenal, 17th-century theatre and monumental cathedral square of Hvar Town.
Walk the narrow stone lanes of Korcula Town, said to be the birthplace of Marco Polo, and admire its palaces and ancient churches.
Take an optional day trip from Korcula to Dubrovnik and walk the cobbled streets of the UNESCO-listed Old Town with a professional guide.
Step inside Diocletian's Palace in Split, a UNESCO World Heritage site still alive with bars, restaurants and everyday Dalmatian life after 17 centuries.
Climb Vidova Gora at 778 metres, the highest peak in the Adriatic islands, for panoramic views stretching to Hvar, Vis, Korcula and the Peljesac peninsula.
VisitSkrip, the oldest settlement on Brac, and the stonemason school in Pucisca, one of very few stone masonry academies still operating in Europe.
Itinerary Overview
Arrive at Split Airport where a representative meets you and assists with the ferry transfer to Bol on Island Brac. Settle into your hotel and take your first look at the Dalmatian coastline before a relaxed overnight stay.
Three days at leisure on Brac allow time to climb Vidova Gora, discover the natural rainwater pools of Trolokve, visit the ancient village of Skrip and explore the stonemason academy in Pucisca. An optional English-speaking guide is available on any of these days for a deeper local experience.
Transfer to Hvar Town and spend two days discovering one of Dalmatia's oldest tourist centres, taking in the Arsenal, the 17th-century theatre, the Franciscan monastery and the sweeping central square. An optional guide is available to bring the town's layered history to life.
Three nights on Korcula provide time to explore its medieval old town, visit the house associated with Marco Polo and enjoy the surrounding vineyards and fishing villages. An optional day trip to Dubrovnik, just a short distance away, makes these days particularly rewarding for families interested in Croatian history.
Transfer back to Split and spend the day exploring the living archaeological site of Diocletian's Palace, with its bars, restaurants and local craft shops tucked inside ancient Roman walls. An optional guide is available to illuminate the city's remarkable 17-century history.
Transfer to Split Airport at the agreed time for your onward flight. The 11-day circuit ends with memories of three distinct Croatian islands, two historic UNESCO cities and countless days of Adriatic freedom.
