New high-speed lines connecting Dalmatia and Kvarner are starting

The Zadar shipping company G&V Line Iadera continues to connect Dalmatia and Kvarner by sea. This season, they will sail on two high-speed passenger lines: Zadar-Silba-Rab-Krk-Rijeka and Zadar-Božava-Silba-Mali Lošinj-Susak.

The line connecting Zadar and Rijeka with the islands of Silba, Rab and Krk has been maintained since 2019, and this season, based on last year’s results and passenger suggestions, some changes have been introduced. Departure will be in the morning from Zadar and return in the afternoon from Rijeka. The route was changed so that the ship would dock in the town of Rab instead of Lopar on Rab. On the high-speed line Zadar-Silba-Rab-Krk-Rijeka and vice versa, the catamaran will sail every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday.

Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday are reserved for sailing on the second high-speed line, which is being introduced for the first time this season: Zadar-Božava-Silba-Mali Lošinj-Susak and vice versa.

Both lines will be maintained by the catamaran Antonija, in the period from June 1 to September 30, 2021. The catamaran offers comfortable sailing in an air-conditioned lounge, free Wi-Fi, a boat bar and the possibility of transporting bicycles and pets.

The first voyage will take place on Tuesday, June 1, 2021, on the high-speed line Zadar-Božava-Silba-Mali Lošinj-Susak, departing from Zadar at 08:00 am and returning from Susak at 04:30 pm. The day after, on Wednesday, June 2, 2021, sailing will start on the line Zadar-Silba-Rab-Krk-Rijeka, departing from Zadar at 08:00 am and returning from Rijeka at 04:00 pm.

Kapetan Luka starts with the new line

The first excursion line of the shipping company “Kapetan Luka” departed on Monday, May 31, from Split to Dubrovnik. The catamaran from Split departed at 7:30 am and arrived in Bol at 8:20 am. After ten minutes the catamaran continued to Makarska, Korcula, Mljet (Sobra) and arrived in Dubrovnik at 12:15.

Last year, this line was announced, but it was not realized. Travel tickets are sold in Bol by Bol tours agency. The islanders do not have a discount and the ticket from Bol to Split will cost 100 kuna, the same amount to Makarska, and to Korcula and Mljet 140 kuna. The price of transport from Bol to Dubrovnik is 240 kuna per person.

The state shipping company Jadrolinija plans to start with the line Dubrovnik – Korcula – Hvar – Bol – Split and the same day back, starting from June 11. The line will run from Split with departure at 3:30 pm, and that line in Bol would be at 4:30 pm. The journey to Hvar will continue at 4:45 pm, and the arrival in the town of Hvar at 5:35 pm.
