Situated in the Adriatic Sea, a 40 minute ferry ride from Split, Hvar Island is an extremely
picturesque place and famous for its beautiful beaches, historic architecture and wine. Ca-
tering to the nightclub scene in the summer months, the main town of Hvar is a lively mix
of clubs, pubs and restaurants. However, the rest of the island is also worth exploring for
its vineyards, secluded pebbled beaches, clifftop views and ancient Greek ruins. If you want
sunshine, then Hvar is the place to go, it's said to be the sunniest spot in Europe. For that
reason wine and olives are two of its traditional specialities.
