the first organised swim around Hvar's mesmerising Paklinski Isles archipelago
The INCroatia Swim Challenge is a unique chance to end your OW season in a memorable way. Born in 2018, ISC pledges to take swimmers to a different location on the Croatian Adriatic each year, always keeping the distance around 25 km split into four swims over two days. The swims always take place at routes that have never been swum before! For its third edition, this unique swim challenge takes you to one of Croatia's most breathtaking islands for a one-of-a-kind swimming experience! 75 lucky swimmers will get to be the first ever to swim around the Paklinski Isles archipelago off the coast of the medieval town of Hvar. The sunniest island in Croatia and the clearest water of the Adriatic guarantee the swim of lifetime!

GETTING TO INCROATIA SWIM CHALLENGE
Hvar is the most beautiful island of central Dalmatia and can most easily be reached by flying into Split airport (SPU), which is serviced by many low-budget airlines in early October. The airport is a 40 minutes drive by bus or 30 minutes by taxi to the harbour, where there are four daily fast boat connections to Hvar. It is also possible to fly into Dubrovnik and take either a ferry, a bus or a taxi directly to Split.
