About the DubrovnikHvar crossing

A 3-hour 20-minute crossing connects the southern Croatian port of Dubrovnik with the island of Hvar. This domestic route is operated by Krilo (Kapetan Luka) and covers a distance of approximately 75 nautical miles across the Adriatic Sea. The single daily departure is scheduled for 15:30.

This service operates every day. Fares for the foot-passenger-only catamaran start from €50. From Dubrovnik, other ferries sail to Korčula, Pomena, and Sobra, while Hvar also has a connection to Korčula.

One sailing a day, and no return leg in our data

This crossing runs once, departing Dubrovnik at 15:30 and taking 3 hours 20 minutes. There is no second departure and no alternative time. Just as important: we hold no Hvar to Dubrovnik route at all — not a thin one, none. Do not plan a return on the assumption that this timetable mirrors.

Three hours twenty is a long way up the coast

Dubrovnik sits at the southern end of the Croatian coast and Hvar is well to the north-west; this is not an island hop but a coastal passage past Korčula and the Pelješac peninsula. A fast catamaran covering it in under three and a half hours is doing well, and it is why the service is a single afternoon departure rather than a shuttle.

A 15:30 departure decides your day

Leaving mid-afternoon and arriving in the evening means the crossing consumes the second half of one day and delivers you to Hvar after most onward connections have stopped. If you are continuing beyond Hvar Town, plan to stay the night rather than assume you can move on.

Your destination

About Hvar

Hvar has two front doors and they are 20 km apart. Catamarans put you on the riva in Hvar Town, a two-minute walk from the square; car ferries land at Stari Grad on the far side of the ridge. Which one you use is decided not by preference but by whether you are bringing a vehicle — the fast boats carry none at all.
