Croatia’s Vis Island, famous from Mamma Mia!, offers serene beaches, crystal-clear waters, rich history, and an idyllic escape for those seeking tranquility.

Vis, a serene island in Croatia, has recently gained popularity after being featured in the blockbuster film Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again. Although not a typical destination for British travelers, Vis offers an idyllic escape for those seeking a quiet summer retreat, free from the usual crowds. This tranquil island remains largely untouched due to its remote location, making it an ideal spot for relaxation and exploration.

The island’s allure is heightened by its crystal-clear waters, pristine beaches, and laid-back atmosphere, all of which contribute to its growing fame among movie buffs and holidaymakers. Highlights of Vis include its beautiful beaches, such as Stiniva and Srebrna, as well as the nearby Blue Cave on Biševo Island.

One visitor to Stiniva Cove described it on Tripadvisor as “a must-see beach,” noting its seclusion and the peaceful vibe, with a cozy bar and a pebble beach perfect for soaking up the sun, even if you’re not in the water.

Vis is also celebrated for its exceptional cuisine, featuring fresh seafood, local olive oils, and distinctive wines. History enthusiasts will find much to explore on the island, with ancient Greek and Roman ruins, Fort George, and the Archaeological Museum offering a glimpse into the past.

For the more adventurous traveler, Vis provides plenty of outdoor activities, including hiking, cycling, kayaking, and snorkeling.

The easiest way to reach Vis is from Split, which offers frequent travel connections. A short two-and-a-half-hour flight from London will take you to Split, where you can enjoy the city before heading to Vis for a more peaceful retreat.

If you’re looking for a serene, picturesque getaway this summer, Vis is a hidden gem worth considering.
