How to Get to Hvar Island 2011


Recognised as one of the ten most beautiful islands in the world by readers of Conde Nast, and with an average of 2724 hours of sun, the island of Hvar is growing in popularity as a tourist destination.

Croatia's premier island is a diverse and rewarding experience, from the party atmosphere of Hvar Town to yoga and meditation in picturesque settings. The northern resorts of Jelsa, Vrboksa and Stari Grad offer a more relaxed break by the sea in old stone surroundings, while southern beach resorts such as Zavala, Ivan Dolac and Sveta Nedelja offer excellent family beach holidays.

The aim of this blog is to bring the island of Hvar to life and to explore some of the lesser known aspects of this stunning island. For more information on Hvar, a new guide book, Hvar: An Insider's Guide to Croatia's Premier Island will be available for the 2011 season.
