Hvar

Hvar combines a lively harbour town with quieter bays, vineyards and old stone villages. In Hvar Town, climb to Fortica for the view, explore the historic theatre and follow the waterfront past the Franciscan monastery. Boats connect the town with the wooded Pakleni Islands, while Stari Grad offers a gentler base on the island’s northern coast. Summer brings busy terraces and late nights; outside the main season, check ferry connections and restaurant opening dates before making plans.
