Blue Grotto

Located on the island of Biševo, off Vis' southwestern tip, this coastal cave is one of the region's most famous natural sights. It's at its best between 11am and noon, when the sun’s rays pass through an underwater opening, bathing the interior in an unearthly blue light. Beneath the translucent water, rocks glimmer in silver and pink to a depth of 16m. To get here, the easiest, quickest and best option is to take a tour from Komiža.

Silver Beach

My favorite beach. Near the fishing village of Rukavac, Srebrna (Silver) beach has large white pebbles and clear blue waters, backed with a nature reserve. It has the advantage of being a flat walk from a parking area. Nudists head to Bili Bok, a rock terrace a little to the south.

StinivaVis

Tiny Stiniva is Vis’ most perfect cove. The high cliffs surrounding it form an almost complete circle, with a gap of only about 10m open to the sea. The beach is lined with large, smooth pebbles, which blaze white against the blue waters. Stiniva can be reached by an extremely steep and rough track, but it's much more easily accessed by boat. Most excursion boats from Vis Town and Komiža offer Stiniva as an option.

Mount Hum

Beautiful to watch sunsets. Reaching a height of 587m, this mountain dominates the western end of Vis. The very top is off limits, but you can drive up and park a little before the end of the road, where a short path leads to a lookout offering jaw-dropping views over Komiža. Famously, Tito used a cave on the mountain as his headquarters during WWII. To reach Hum, turn off the main road at Podšplije and follow the signs.

Pritiscína public beach

Awesome pebble beach with turquoise see, and it is not crowded, so you can have it for yourself with a little bit of luck. Accessible with car although the road is not the best. Park along the road after last right turn because last part of road is steep and very bad. No bar or restaurant at the beach.
