Travel Guide Île De Vis

One of the prettiest and best preserved islands in Croatia. Geographically un, Vis has recently been considered a tourist destination. But under no circumstances can this island compete with its neighbours, because it is too small and too fragile to become a place of mass tourism. You can cross it on foot along a road along the coast lined with tamarisks, palm trees and beautiful house. Vis was a base of the Yugoslav army until 1992. Since the soldiers left, it has remained isolated from its congeners. It is now an agricultural island where the inhabitants live mainly in the cultivation of olive trees, vineyards and fishing. The island does not have any fresh water sources outside of the Komiža. In the high season, Vis must be supplied by boat. The island was first occupied by Greeks in the th century, which founded the Issa colony. It quickly became an important city and was developed by the Romans who built a theatre, a temple, the thermal baths, and the island scattered its colonies on Korčula and Trogir. Unfortunately, she lost her prestige because of the wars between Caesar and Pumped. Screws was then placed under the control of Hvar. After the Venetians and the French, it was Austrians who wardens a little life on the island.Several ferries connect Split to Komiža, with some, a stopover in Hvar.Possibility of excursion in the day with a tourist agency from Hvar.
