Continue to the island of Vis, once, in the 4th century BC, one of the main Greek colonies. Vis remains relatively under the radar for tourists, partly because it served as a Yugoslav military base until 1991. That long isolation left the island’s culture and architecture remarkably well preserved. Rosemary, capers and sage grow wild across the landscape, adding to its quiet, authentic charm. Try some exquisite local wines, and if you’re up for exploring, visit the remains of the Roman thermal baths or the City Museum. A stroll along the waterfront reveals the remains of ancient villae rusticae and the timeless island atmosphere. Overnight stay is planned in Vis or Komiža (subject to berth availability), both offering a genuine taste of the island’s character.
