IslandGuide — Vis
🇭🇷 Croatia

Car rental in Vis

Vis se dostáváte trajektem ze Splitu, takže většina návštěvníků si pronajme auto na letišti ve Splitu (SPU) a najede s ním na trajekt Jadrolinija (cca 2h 20m). Na ostrově propojuje příčná silnice Vis Town s Komižou, s odbočkami na pláž Stiniva, Srebrnu, Stončicu, oblast Titovy jeskyně a vinařství kolem Plisko Polje. Auto je nezbytné pro odlehlé jižní pláže a vyhlídku Mount Hum. Lodní výlety k Modré jeskyni na Biševu vyplouvají z Komiže.

Často kladené otázky

Do I need a car on Vis?
Yes, if you want to explore beyond Vis Town and Komiza. Many of the best beaches (Stiniva, Srebrna, Stoncica) and the Mount Hum viewpoint are reached by side roads with no public transport. The cross-island main road is short (10 km) but the network of beach access roads is extensive.
Can I take a rental car on the Split ferry?
Yes, the Jadrolinija car ferry from Split allows rental cars provided you check with the rental company first -- some restrict cross-border or inter-island travel. The crossing to Vis takes about 2h 20m. Reserve a vehicle slot in advance during July and August.
How long does the ferry from Split take?
The car ferry takes about 2h 20m. There is also a faster passenger-only catamaran (about 1h 30m) that does not carry vehicles. Both are operated by Jadrolinija from Split's main port.
Are the roads on Vis good?
The main Vis-Komiza road is paved and in good condition. Side roads to beaches like Stiniva involve narrow, steep sections -- drive slowly and watch for oncoming traffic. The hike down to Stiniva itself starts from a small parking lot above the cove.
Where do I park in Vis Town and Komiza?
Both towns have paid public parking lots near the waterfront. The narrow streets in the historic centres are mostly pedestrian or restricted, so park outside and walk in. Parking is generally easy outside July-August peak.
Are there gas stations on Vis?
Yes -- there is one main station in Vis Town and one in Komiza. Both stock unleaded and diesel. Fill up before driving across the island and avoid running low, since there are no stations between the two towns.
Can I drive directly to Stiniva Beach?
Not all the way. A narrow paved road leads to a small parking area above the cove, then you walk down a steep 10-15 minute path. Parking spaces are limited -- arrive early in summer or visit by boat from Komiza.
How do I visit the Blue Cave on Bisevo?
The Blue Cave is on Bisevo island, reached only by boat from Komiza on Vis. Half-day boat tours cost around EUR 50-80 per person and include the cave plus other beaches. Cars stay parked at Komiza port during the tour.
Is there public transport on Vis?
There is a limited bus service connecting Vis Town and Komiza timed to ferry arrivals, but it does not reach most beaches or scenic spots. For independent exploration, a car or scooter is much more practical.
What's the best season to drive on Vis?
May, June and September offer the best driving conditions -- pleasant temperatures and quieter roads. July and August are the busiest, with crowded ferries and parking constraints at popular beaches. The island is largely closed for tourism October to April.
