Hvar to Dubrovnik on Sept 21...

Hello - what are our options for going from Hvar to Dubrovnik on Sept 21? We will not have a car.....thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No direct ferry on 21st Sept but there is one that runs between Drvenik on the main land to Sucaraj on Hvar Island. No idea of transport links once at Drvenik and Sucaraj is quite inaccessible on Hvar. You can get the ferry/cat back to Split then get one of the fast buses (bus station right next door to ferry port) down to Dubrovnik (4 hours). I would probably do that.

Agree with Jude C - you are looking at a catamaran from Hvar town to Split and then a bus from Split to Dubrovnik. Allow 6 hours in total as a minimum.

Thanks - is that (cat and bus) something that we should book in advance or just the day before?

Although you could just show up and buy the tickets before departure, just to be on the safe side, as the no of seats in catamaran and bus is limited, you could buy the tickets for bus ST-DU before heading to Hvar island, and for catamaran the day before(if possible, if they will not be willing to sell the day before, just come early enough before the dept.).

If you could leave Hvar on Tuesday 22.Sept, there is the ferry SG-DU.

Hmmm...maybe we should alter our travel plans slightly...how long does the direct cat take?

Thanks!

There is no direct catamaran between Hvar and Dubrovnik. As Jelsa said, there is a large car/passenger ferry on Sep 22 that departs Stari Grad on Hvar (15 mins by bus from Hvar town) at 9:00am and arrives in Dubrovnik at 4:15pm. It is a very scenic journey and the views from the deck are lovely. You have the freedom to sit, walk around, chat with others or sleep as you go. Simply stock up with some food, drink and some reading material.

Cheers

Thanks!! Hmm....that does sound considerably nicer then taking the bus....would you say it is worth it to alter travel plans to be able to take the boat all the way there? Also - is the same schedule available on the 20th as well as the 22nd? Cheers.
