FAQ – Split – Vis Ferry

Why is a foot passenger ticket for the ferry and catamaran so cheap?

Both ferry routes 602 and 9602 are state lines, meaning that the state partly finances them, reason for this is to ensure that the people living on Island Vis have an affordable option to get to the mainland year around.

I am with car, how do I make sure to catch a specific departure?

Basically neither Split port nor Vis port has a car queuing system, so normally cars, trucks, buses, would be loaded according to when they arrived at the port, but there is an exception, on Sat and Sun during July and August cars are loaded first on the first two car ferry departures to and from Vis.

Can I bring my Bicycle with the ferry to / from Vis

Yes but only on the car ferry departures, for the bike you need to buy a ticket which costs the same as a foot passenger ticket.

Can I bring my dog on the ferry from Split to Vis?

You can bring your dog, if you follow the terms of Jadrolinija.

I am going to Komiza on Island Vis, how do I get there from the Vis town?

Is it better to take the car ferry or the catamaran?

Both are great options, you should take car ferry, if you like to sit outside and enjoy the views, and you should take the catamaran If you want the fastest trip.
