Get in+

The most common way to get to Bol is by ferry from Split Harbour, which is easily reached on the frequent buses from Split Airport (40 mins). There are direct catamarans from Split. Over summer there is also a direct catamaran from Split Airport. Ferry lines are run by Krilo Shipping Company and RAFT Croatia ferries. Alternatively, take the car ferry from Split to Supetar on the other side of the island (approx 1 hour, services hourly in season), and then take the bus to Bol (approx 40 mins). Check for the timetable of the buses. If you take a ferry later in the evening you will have to take a taxi since there are no buses after 19:00. For the correct bus timetable, check local agencies before arrival.

In the high season there are flights to the airport on Brac Island itself which is less than 10 km from Bol; these tend to come from Zagreb early on a Saturday morning.
