Good to know before you go

This is a brand-new, year-round line run by Krilo Kapetan Luka (state line 9605). The first catamaran sails on 1 November; before that date the departure list stays empty.

Our tips for the catamaran

The line is brand new, from 1 November. We'll take it soon and add our own tips here.

It's a state line run by Krilo Kapetan Luka, meant mostly for people living on Brač, which is why the tickets are so cheap. Visitors are of course welcome too.

Until now, people from Postira had to get to Supetar first to reach Split. Now there's an affordable catamaran straight to the city.

There's no car ferry to Postira. If you're bringing a car, take the car ferry from Split to Supetar (Split → Supetar) and drive along the island from there.

As for the boats, Krilo Kapetan Luka usually sends the catamaran Krilo Tropic (332 passengers). The companies swap boats from time to time, so yours may be a different one.

As for where to sit, it doesn't really matter here. We checked the route on the map, and the coast is about as close on one side as on the other, so just grab a window seat.

There are no seat reservations on the catamarans: you sit wherever you like, first come, first served. All of them have air conditioning.

Bags are stowed one by one as people board, so the first ones in end up behind everyone else's. If you board last, yours will be the easiest to get to when you arrive.
