Vis Island Tour
describe the image Create a custom kayak adventure for your group around Vis Island, Croatia’s most distant inhabited island. Still relatively unknown as a tourist destination, tiny Vis Island has a rich history, having served as the Adriatic outpost to many great empires and nations: Greece, Rome, Venice, Austria, France, England, and Italy.
Today, Vis Island’s charm lies in its relative isolation, which has insulated it from commercial development and mass tourism. Lauded for its wild rugged beauty, and its deep connections to Mediterranean maritime heritage, the island is a true feast for the senses. Its restaurants are wonderful, and Vis wines, especially the white Vugava and red Plavac, are organically produced and superb. The island’s crystalline waters and unspoiled shores rank among the cleanest on the planet.
