Jadrolinija’s car ferry Line 604 runs year-round from Split to Vela Luka (Korčula) and on selected departures continues to Ubli (Lastovo). The ferry carries vehicles and is the main direct car-ferry option from Split toward western Korčula and Lastovo.
The sailing takes about 3 hours from Split to Vela Luka. Continuing from Vela Luka to Ubli adds roughly another 1 hour 30 minutes. Not every departure continues all the way to Lastovo, so always check the Ubli column for your specific sailing.
Line 604 is a reservation route: when you buy a ticket for a selected departure, your place on that sailing is reserved. Jadrolinija’s general baseline for reservable routes is to be at the port at least 45 minutes before departure. With a vehicle in July and August, allowing around 60 minutes or more is sensible because traffic and loading queues at Split Ferry Port can slow you down.
2026 fare snapshot: Split ↔ Ubli adult €8.60-€11.50, Split ↔ Vela Luka adult €7.90-€10.80, and a standard passenger car €55.90-€73.70. Full 2026 fares are listed below.
This page covers the car ferry. Some Split-Korčula or Split-Lastovo search results refer to passenger-only fast ships or catamarans, which do not carry cars.

Tickets, reservations and vehicles
Line 604 is a reservable car-ferry line. Your purchased ticket reserves your place on the selected departure.
How early to arrive
- Official baseline: be at the port at least 45 minutes before departure.
- Vehicle in July/August: around 60 minutes or more is a sensible practical buffer because port traffic and vehicle loading can take longer.
- Fixed summer plans: buy the sailing you want as soon as your date is fixed, because vehicle capacity is limited.
Vehicle documents
- Have your vehicle registration/traffic-permit information ready when buying a vehicle ticket.
- If you are using a rental car and do not yet know the registration number, follow the current Jadrolinija booking instructions; the booking system can accept RENTAL where applicable.
- Choose the correct length and height category for larger cars, vans, campers and trailers.
Bicycles on vehicles
If bicycles are carried on a roof rack, declare the vehicle’s increased height correctly. Rear-mounted bicycles can increase the total vehicle length and should be included in the dimensions used for booking.
Boarding at Split Ferry Port
Split Ferry Port has multiple vehicle-ferry berths. Do not rely on a permanent pier number for Line 604.
- Check the berth: use the Port of Split live departures and berths on travel day.
- Vehicles: follow signs for Trajekt/Ferry and join the lane for Vela Luka/Lastovo.
- Foot passengers: walk to the assigned passenger boarding point.
- Parking: if you are leaving a vehicle in Split rather than taking it on the ferry, use our Split parking guide.
Vela Luka ferry port: not Korčula Town
Vela Luka is on the western side of Korčula Island. It is not Korčula Town, which is on the eastern side of the island.
- Staying in Vela Luka: the ferry terminal is close to the town centre.
- Staying elsewhere on Korčula: plan onward travel by car, bus or taxi.
- Going to Lastovo: check the timetable carefully because only certain sailings continue from Vela Luka to Ubli.
Ubli ferry port: not Lastovo Town
Ubli is Lastovo Island’s main ferry port. It is a separate settlement from Lastovo Town, so most visitors need onward road transport after disembarking.
- With a vehicle: drive onward from Ubli toward Lastovo Town and other island settlements.
- Without a vehicle: check current local bus or taxi arrangements, particularly outside peak season.
If you are travelling without a car
Passenger-only catamarans may be faster on some routes and dates, but they do not carry cars or motorcycles.
- For Split-Hvar-Korčula passenger services, see Split - Hvar - Korčula catamaran.
- If you are unsure which ferry type you need, see our Croatia ferry booking guide.
Alternatives and connections
Approaching Korčula or Lastovo from southern Croatia with a car

Foot-passenger connections from Dubrovnik
Passenger-only routes from Dubrovnik can also connect Mljet, Korčula and Lastovo on selected dates. See the Dubrovnik to Mljet, Korčula and Lastovo catamaran.
