Bisevo is an island in Croatia present in the Adriatic Sea. If you are looking for some sailing holidays to soothe and relax your mind and body, then the cruising experience of the Adriatic cruises will be one of the memorable experiences of your life.

The amazing thing is that Bisevo can provide you with all of these luxury experiences in the Mediterranean. There is a lot more to know about the Bisevo and its world-famous Blue Cave, here we have discussed all about it.

What is Blue Cave Bisevo and what are the main attractions of this place?

As the name suggests, the main attraction of this place is the color. But where does the magic come from? The blue cave presents a very attractive sight to the eyes because of its unique environment. It is all because of the sun rays and the eroding of limestone at that place.

A little insight into the history of this place.

This was a place that was discovered by the locals in the 1880s, but the place was never disclosed by the locals and it was kept as a secret. One of the reasons might be that this place had no discrete entrance. It was only accessible if someone was able to dive through that was considered to be a very dangerous thing to do.

So, after some time there was an opening made that is now used by people to visit this place. Although the opening is not very wide and tall, it is only able to let small boats pass through.

What is the optimal time to visit this place?

An interesting thing is that you cannot enjoy this place during the whole day. It is because the appearance of this place is only because of the magic of nature. The sun rays do the magic from 11 am to noon and this is considered to be the best time to visit this place.

If you are planning to visit this place at any time other than the hours mentioned above, you will not be able to gather the best experience of the place.

Swimming in the blue cave

A very interesting thing to know is that although this place was found by the people who used to dive to get in there, it is still prohibited to swim inside the cave. However, you can swim outside the cave but not inside. One of the major reasons for swimming being prohibited can be the dangerous location and environment of the cave.

So that, you can only visit the blue cave on small boats however you can come and get the boat from your small cruise ship.
