Very special place but limited for visitors that wants comfort. Main thing that bothers me is few beaches, most of terrain is uncomfortable rocks where sometimes it take you up to 20 minutes to find a proper place to set up your chair or beach towels. The sea is magically clear, pure and crystal blue, a view is fascinating, there... More

The best thing one should do while staying in Hvar, is rent one of the boats available in many places around the island, and spend a day in the nearby islands, it is breath taking work of nature,you should see it at list twice in life!

Catching a water taxi over to the islands was extremely relaxing. The beaches and coves the taxis take you to all have at least one bar and restaurant. Lounging around, reading and taking dips in the warm water was one of the best bits of the holiday. Buy some diving shoes (you can get them pretty much everywhere in Hvar)... More

We took a day trip from the center of Hvar for 50 Kuna each to Palmizana. Overall, the beach was very small and crowded and we probably could have just as easily stayed at our hotel beach but, we enjoyed the time spent lazing in the sun and reading a book. We ate lunch at a little restaurant above the... More
