    This informations are incorrect! I live on the island of Vis and this article is incorrect. No connection to Ancona, ferry takes 2,5hours to Split 2-3 times per day, catamaran 1,5 hour to Split once per day!! No public transport except vis – komiza when the ferry arrives, not all day long.
    Taxi, renting a vehicle and hitchhiking are options you have here.
