The island of Bisevo, a small Mediterranean paradise oasis with only a dozen inhabitants, is increasingly known worldwide for its Blue Cave. This cave was painted by Baron Eugen von Rasonet in 1884, on whose suggestion the entrance of the cave was expanded to make it accessible for visitors.
Bisevo is the part of the Vis Archipelago UNESCO Geopark, formed by 220 million old rocks, and its Blue Cave is protected in the category of geomorphological nature monuments since 1951.
Organized visits to the Cave from the bay of Mezoporat
The regular line 612 connecting Komiza and Bisevo leads to the Mezoporat bay. From the early morning, the bay is crowded with tourists waiting for an expert guide who will take them by boat to the Blue Cave. Boats and rubber speed boats are constantly coming from Hvar, Split, Vis, Brac and Solta, and it is possible to see some mega yachts too.
The cave is entered through an artificially made opening, and passing through the entrance hall, there is a large hall where all the magic of this cave takes place. There the cave is lit by magical sunlight that gives the objects in the sea that enchanting silver blue color.
Over 160,000 visitors a year
For a five-minute tour of the cave, you will need to pay 100 Kuna. Since last year, it is possible to buy a VIP ticket that costs 2000 Kuna for a maximum of 12 people and that allows you to enter the cave without waiting and to enjoy this incredible atmosphere and rare natural beauty for half an hour. This cave has become an unavoidable tourist attraction in the Adriatic visited by over 160,000 people annually. Its growing popularity among tourists is also indicated by data on the increase in the number of visitors from 45,000 in 2012 to 166,000 last year.
Except enjoying the charm of this cave, you can also enjoy the beautiful sandy beaches and relax with a glass of a premium quality wine Plavac Mali.
