Vehicle booking
- Have the vehicle registration / traffic-permit information ready.
- Select the correct vehicle length and height category.
- Keep your electronic ticket available on your phone; printing is normally unnecessary.
- If using a rental car and the registration number is not yet known, follow Jadrolinija’s current booking instructions; RENTAL can be accepted where applicable.
How early should you arrive?
- General official baseline: at least 45 minutes before departure.
- Vehicle in summer: allow around 60 minutes, with additional time on the busiest July and August weekends.
- Reservation does not mean late boarding: you still need time to reach the correct berth and complete vehicle loading.
If your plans change
Changes and cancellations are subject to Jadrolinija’s current local-route conditions and available capacity. Check the current operator rules before cancelling or trying to move a vehicle reservation to another sailing.
Taking bicycles with a car
A bicycle travelling as a separate item has the bicycle fare shown above. If it is attached to your vehicle, Jadrolinija applies vehicle-dimension rules instead.
- Roof-mounted bicycle: the bicycle is not separately charged, but you must declare the vehicle’s increased total height correctly.
- Rear-mounted bicycle: it counts toward the total vehicle length. If the combined length moves the vehicle into a larger category, book that category.
- Bicycle travelling separately: use the bicycle fare in the official tariff.
Pets on the Split-Vis ferry
Pets are accepted under Jadrolinija’s current ferry rules.
- Small pets: pets up to 8 kg may travel in indoor passenger areas in an appropriate carrier no larger than 45 × 35 × 25 cm.
- Larger pets: generally remain in the permitted outdoor/deck areas.
- Dogs: must be on a leash and wear a muzzle, except assistance dogs where different rules apply.
Boarding with a car in Split
Split Ferry Port has multiple vehicle-ferry berths, and the berth used for Vis can change. Do not rely on an old pier number.
- Check the Split → Vis departure on the electronic boards.
- Confirm the assigned berth on the Port of Split live departures and berths.
- Follow signs for Trajekt / Ferry and join the correct Vis vehicle lane.
- Keep your ticket and vehicle documents accessible.
- Drive aboard only when directed by port and ferry staff.
If you are leaving a vehicle in Split rather than taking it to Vis, see our Split parking guide.
For full port logistics, see the Split Ferry Port guide.
Arriving in Vis Town
The car ferry arrives in Vis Town, not Komiža. From the ferry port you can walk into Vis Town, continue by car, take a taxi or use the island’s local bus services.
Vis Town to Komiža
Komiža is on the western side of the island, roughly 11 km from Vis Town. Driving usually takes around 15-20 minutes, depending on traffic.
- By car: follow the cross-island road toward Komiža.
- By bus: seasonal local buses connect Vis Town and Komiža, often with schedules coordinated around ferry arrivals.
- By taxi: useful for late arrivals, luggage or accommodation away from the main settlements.
Because local bus schedules change seasonally, check the current timetable for your travel date rather than relying on fixed departure times.
Car ferry vs passenger-only fast services
If you are bringing a car, motorcycle, van, camper or trailer, use the Line 602 car ferry. Passenger-only catamarans and fast ships do not carry vehicles.
| Option | Vehicles? | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Jadrolinija Line 602 car ferry | Yes | Vehicles, year-round travel and travelers carrying more luggage |
| Passenger-only catamaran / fast ship | No | Foot passengers prioritising speed or multi-island travel |
Foot passengers can also compare seasonal fast services, including Jadrolinija routes and other operators. See our Split-Vis catamaran guide.
