2014
We got a boat from Split ferry port which took less than an hour and cost next to nothing (online it’s saying 33 Kuna which is less than £4). In high season boats run very regularly – you can check the timetablhere.
We then jumped in a taxi from the ferry terminal to Bol. We stayed in 2 different apartments here because we didn’t book in advance and there was limited availability as it’s not a particularly big place. Both had gorgeous views from the balcony.
Bol is most famous for its beach (Zlanti Rat) which sticks out into the sea like a tongue! It’s a pebble beach – no sandy beaches in Croatia I’m afraid – so bring a padded mat to sunbathe on (they sell them in Croatian supermarkets if you can’t fit in your suitcase).
There are lots of swanky bars / restaurants along the beach which have chilled beach party vibes all day.
Away from the beach we went to an outdoor bar called Varadero which became very lively / clubby as the night went on. Click for other TimeOut suggested bars / clubs in the area.
