Welcome to Hvar
An island haven in the midst of the glittering Adriatic Sea, there are lots of things to do in Hvar, Croatia’s coastal crown jewel. The 17th-century cathedral reigns over a smooth, sandstone plaza, while charming restaurants serve local staples such as black truffle, octopus, and prosciutto. By day, island hop on a private yacht or catamaran, stopping to swim and snorkel at some of the 17 islands that make up the Pakleni archipelago; by night, Hvar’s clifftop Spanish Fortress affords panoramic views of the Dalmatian Coast, while beachfront bars offer a slice of Croatia's renowned nightlife.
