Island Hvar

It is situated in picturesque nature, facing the southern side of the world that has given it its Mediterranean attraction and cheerfulness. Given its splendid and rich history, Hvar is an inexhaustible treasury of scenery, atmosphere and adventure.

Its name derives from the Greek name PHAROS, which means island and town, that stood where today Stari Grad stands.(Hvar became the island’s centre in 13th century).

Hvar gained glory and power during the middle ages and became an important port within the Venetian naval empire. Today, it's the center of the island’s tourism and a favorite destination on the Dalmatian riviera - a town of smiling and courteous people, who are almost only dedicated to tourism.

Friendly people, well-indented coast, numerous picturesque and intact beaches and bays, virgin nature, very rich historical and cultural inheritance, the scents of lavender, olive trees and wine are the reasons that island Hvar welcomes more and more tourists each year.
