Pakleni Islands

Reviewed By Bluerange35 - Malmesbury, United Kingdom

We hired a fast boat for the day and visited the Blue Cave and then the islands after. We all wished we had spent more time exploring the islands than spending hours going to the Cave. The little bays are beautiful and make sure you visit Marmito’s for lunch

Tvrdava Fortica

Reviewed By burger2020

Deff if you are in hvar you need to visit this place, it has great view of island hvar and city, its a place where you capture great photos. There is a coffe shop up there to refresh after a 15-20 Min walk up there, which is not bad at all

Mekicevica Beach

Reviewed By 539katarinak

Beautiful beach with not many people on it. The sea was heavenly blue! The beach is 30 min walk trough the pine woods away from the main, turist beach Pokonji dol. It is very much worth the walk!

Jerolim

Reviewed By Absalon_mad - Barcelona, Spain

Jerolim island is very close to Hvar town, and very recommended if you want to enjoy a nudist beach. Taxi boats depart from the Arsenal building in Hvar town centre every 30 min and the trip lasts for 10 min. A lot of the reviews mention 2 beach bar- at the time of our trip the one that was supposed to be the main one had been deserted. Once you arrive at Jerolim, you will have an option of going left or right. If you go left you will reach very soon the only existent beach bar at the time of our visit. There is an area for nudist bathing. The bar offers drinks and snacks. Whilst the drinks are acceptable, the snacks are mediocre, so better bring your picnic. If you go right and you continue walking, you will reach a long, wild, rocky beach, ideal for nudists. There are no facilities and you will need water shoes. The end of the beach is frequented by gay men, if that helps.

Mlini Beach

Reviewed By 1008renatof - Zagreb, Croatia

We rented a small boat and did the trip around Pakleni Otoci but this beach and restaurant at Mlini Beach was hell of a experience. I would recommend to everyone who wants to enjoy clear sea and good food with view on that sea

Fort Napoljun - Napolean

Reviewed By miretl2017 - Helsinki, Finland

This fortress is not advertised very much...came across review of this on TripAdvisor, thankfully. It is absolutely breathtaking view specially during sunset! Hiking up on mounting road path is fairly easy, it's a stone path but not steep hill, very comfortable gradually uphill and takes only 45-50. You can see the whole Hvar City and all the surrounding Islands. Highly recommend, it is worth the walk. It is not a fortress you can go inside, its used as Tele communication facility now days. Do not forget your camera!

The Harbour of Hvar

Reviewed By BobandJosie - Reading, United Kingdom

Our cruise around the Croatian Islands inevitably took us to Hvar - a real gem. On a warm Autumn day, slightly out of season, the approach to Hvar was just "Very, Very, Easy on the Eye". A really pleasant waterfront. We had a short guided walking tour - followed by further free time when we wandered through all the narrow streets. And then a realxing drink in a waterfront cafe watching the world go by. BLISS !! Sort of place where you definitely wish you had more time.
