The surrounding clear, turquoise waters are perfect for swimming and snorkeling, offering a chance to discover vibrant marine life. The charming villages, such as Stari Grad and Jelsa, showcase the island’s rich heritage with their picturesque streets, ancient buildings, and welcoming locals. Explore ancient sites like the Byzantine-era Tvrdava Fort, perched high above Hvar Town, offering panoramic views of the Adriatic, and the elegant St. Stephen’s Cathedral, with its impressive bell tower and Renaissance architecture. Unwind in the secluded bays and coves that dot the coastline, or visit the Pakleni Islands, a cluster of isles just off Hvar’s coast, known for their pristine beaches and tranquil ambiance.
