Where to buy tickets (and when to book)
The easiest way to check real-time availability is the booking box above (works for both directions: Dubrovnik - Split and Split - Dubrovnik). Once you have a date, scroll down to match the exact departure time with your check-in and onward plans.
- Book online (recommended): Use the booking box above to compare options and lock in a seat fast, especially in summer.
- Official Krilo tickets: You can also buy directly from Krilo online. When purchasing online, tickets are typically held for a short time while you complete payment, so have your card ready before you start.
- Buy at the port: You can buy tickets in person at the port, but for July-September departures this line often sells out, so do not rely on same-day availability.
What you need to book: travel date, route (e.g. Dubrovnik - Korčula, Dubrovnik - Split), passenger details, and a valid ID if you are using any discounted fare category.
Do you need to print tickets? A mobile ticket is usually accepted, but printing is recommended for faster boarding. If you print, make sure the QR code is not stretched or scaled.
Best booking tip: If you are traveling in peak season, book as soon as your accommodation dates are fixed. If your preferred sailing is sold out, check alternative operators or split the trip with an overnight stop (Korčula or Hvar are the easiest).
Check-in, boarding and practical port info
Boarding time (Krilo): Boarding starts 30 minutes before departure at the starting port (Dubrovnik or Split). At intermediate stops (Mljet, Korčula, Hvar, Brač/Milna), boarding typically starts right after passengers disembark, so stay close to the berth and be ready when the catamaran arrives.
Always check the pier on the day: Piers can change. Look for the operator name on the departure boards and follow port signage for "catamaran".
Dubrovnik port (Gruž) - where to go
Most ferries and catamarans in Dubrovnik use the Gruž passenger terminal at Obala pape Ivana Pavla II 1, 20000 Dubrovnik. If you are coming from the Old Town area, check the latest lines and times in our Dubrovnik city bus timetables guide before you travel.
Best arrival tip: In July-September (and on weekends), arrive earlier than the minimum boarding time so you have enough time to find the correct pier and board without stress.
Split ferry port - where to go
Split's ferry terminal is in the city center, a short walk from the Riva waterfront. For a detailed orientation (piers, facilities and local tips), see our Split Ferry Port guide.
Onward connections: The ferry port is next to Split's main transport hub, including the Split main bus station. If you are connecting to another ferry or bus, allow extra time in peak season because the port area gets busy.
Intermediate stops (Mljet, Korčula, Hvar, Brač/Milna)
Boarding is fast: At intermediate ports, the catamaran stop is short. Be at the waterfront early and keep an eye out for the arriving vessel, especially in Mljet (Pomena), Korčula Old Town and Hvar Town.
Korčula docking note: In Korčula, docking can be on the east or west side of the port, so check locally shortly before departure (Agency "Korčula").
Luggage, bicycles, strollers and accessibility
Luggage allowance
Krilo allows up to 23 kg of luggage per passenger. If there is room on board, the crew may allow additional luggage.
Good to know: the ship does not have a designated area for storing and monitoring luggage. Your luggage is left on board at your own risk, and you handle loading and unloading yourself. Keep valuables, documents and essentials in a small day bag with you.
Bicycles
Transporting a bicycle is possible on Krilo ships, but places are limited. Bicycles are transported at your own risk, and the bicycle ticket price is the same as a passenger ticket. In peak season, book early if you need a bike spot.
Strollers and child gear
Strollers are usually easiest to manage if they are foldable. Plan to fold the stroller before boarding and keep it out of walkways. Space on fast catamarans is limited, so arrive early and follow crew instructions on where to place it.
Reduced mobility and wheelchair travel
Facilities can vary by vessel and port infrastructure. If you are traveling with reduced mobility or a wheelchair, contact the operator in advance and arrive early for boarding assistance. On many Krilo sailings, ramps and crew assistance may be available, but it depends on the ship and conditions on the day.
Pets on Krilo catamarans
Pets are allowed on board as long as they do not pose a danger or nuisance to other passengers. The owner travels with the pet at their own risk and is responsible for any damage.
- Dogs: must be on a leash and wear a muzzle (except guide dogs).
- Cats: must be in a box/carrier.
- Birds: must be in a cage.
- Documents: dogs and cats must have proper vaccination documents.
Small pets in the passenger cabin (salon)
On high-speed lines, small pets can travel in the cabin only inside a pet-transport bag (soft carrier) with max dimensions 45 x 35 x 25 cm, a watertight bottom, and total weight (pet + bag) up to 8 kg. Keep the bag under the seat or in your lap for the whole journey. One passenger can carry one pet bag.
Small pets are typically charged a discounted pet ticket (often 50% of the regular fare).
Larger pets (over 8 kg)
Larger pets are only accepted if the vessel has suitable technical conditions on board (special cages/kennels on the open deck). If available, larger pets are usually charged a full fare. Because capacity is limited, check availability when booking.
How to plan this route: best stop ideas and timing
This catamaran is perfect for island-hopping, but remember it is a through-service - stops are short and meant for boarding, not sightseeing. If you want to actually explore, plan an overnight stop (Korčula or Hvar is the easiest).
Can you do this as a day trip?
Not really. On a through-sailing, the stops at Mljet (Pomena), Korčula, Hvar and Brač (Milna) are quick and you will not have time for beaches, restaurants or attractions. Treat this line as transport, not a hop-on-hop-off tour.
Best stopovers for first-timers
- Korčula (Old Town): the most walkable stop - you can check in, drop bags and be in the historic center in minutes. Use this guide: Korčula travel guide.
- Hvar Town: great for harbor views, nightlife, and day trips to the Pakleni Islands. Use this guide: Hvar travel guide.
- Mljet (Pomena): best if your goal is nature and calm - Pomena is the gateway to the island. Start here: Mljet travel guide.
- Brač (Milna): a quieter base than Bol - ideal if you want a slower pace before Split.
Easy sample itineraries (most popular)
- Option A: Dubrovnik - Korčula (overnight) - Hvar (overnight) - Split
- Option B: Dubrovnik - Hvar (2 nights) - Split
- Option C: Split - Hvar (overnight) - Korčula (overnight) - Dubrovnik (Gruž)
Practical tip: Choose your overnight stop first (hotel availability), then use the timetable to match the sailing with check-in and check-out times. If you land in Split and need to continue by bus, the Split main bus station is next to the ferry port.
Alternatives to Krilo (if tickets are sold out or the timing does not fit)
In summer, the Dubrovnik - Split catamaran can sell out. If you cannot get seats on your preferred day, the best backup is usually to switch operator (same day) or split the trip with an overnight on an island (Korčula or Hvar).
TP Line catamaran Dubrovnik - Korčula - Hvar - Brač (Milna) - Split (line no. 842)
TP Line runs a similar fast catamaran service between Dubrovnik and Split with stops at Korčula, Hvar and Milna (Brač). Use the booking box to check available ferries. Always confirm the stop list and times on your date before booking.
- Line number: 842
- Typical stops: Dubrovnik - Korčula - Hvar - Milna (Brač) - Split
- Reverse direction: Split - Milna - Hvar - Korčula - Dubrovnik (line no. 654)
Jadrolinija high-speed ship Dubrovnik - Korčula - Hvar - Bol - Split (seasonal, check if announced for 2026)
Jadrolinija has operated a seasonal fast ship on Dubrovnik - Korčula - Hvar - Bol - Split in recent summers, but it is not currently listed on the 2026 "Travels" line directory. Check Jadrolinija's official sailing schedule search for your date to confirm whether it runs in 2026 and under which line number.
Split the trip (more availability and better sightseeing)
If all through-tickets are gone, book the trip in 2 legs with an overnight: Dubrovnik - Korčula (sleep) - Hvar (sleep) - Split. This is usually the nicest way to travel because you actually get time on the islands instead of rushing port stops.
Bus or car (most flexible on land)
If you need flexibility, late departures, or you are traveling with lots of luggage, consider going by bus between Dubrovnik and Split and saving ferries for day trips. Start with bus connections from Dubrovnik and the Split main bus station guide for planning connections.
Travel tips for a smooth sailing
- Book early in peak season: July - September departures often sell out, especially on weekends.
- Arrive early and confirm the pier: Ports can be hectic in summer and the exact berth can change, so check the departure boards and port signage on the day.
- Keep essentials with you: Carry valuables, documents, medication, chargers and a light layer in a small day bag.
- Plan for sea conditions: High-speed catamarans can be delayed or cancelled due to wind and rough seas, so avoid tight connections if you are flying or catching another ferry the same day.
- Motion-sickness prep: If you are sensitive to waves, take medication in advance, sit mid-ship if possible, and keep water and snacks handy.
- Sun and wind: Even in summer, it can feel cooler on deck while the catamaran is moving - bring a light jacket or hoodie.
- Food and drink: Onboard offerings vary by vessel, so eat beforehand if you need a proper meal and bring water (especially for afternoon departures).
- Accommodation timing: Match the timetable with check-in and check-out times, or plan an overnight on Korčula or Hvar if you want real sightseeing time.

Which port does it use in Dubrovnik?
Departures and arrivals are from Dubrovnik Ferry Port in Gruž (Gruž Harbour).
How early should I arrive for boarding?
Aim to be at the port at least 30 minutes before departure, and earlier in July - September so you have time to find the correct pier.

Can I bring a bicycle?
Bicycles can be accepted, but places are limited. If you need to travel with a bike in peak season, book early and confirm availability for your sailing.

What happens if the sailing is delayed or cancelled?
In strong wind or rough seas, high-speed catamarans can be delayed or cancelled. If you have a tight connection, build buffer time or consider travelling a day earlier in peak season.
