Hvar

Hvar is a Croatian island in the Adriatic Sea.This is one of the most popular tourist islands of Croatia.

The island has a rich history dating from the time of the Greeks, the only Greek agricultural plot (third century BC.) The world is keptal most entirely between the towns of Stari Grad and Bol. The longest of the Dalmatian islands,it still has parts that remained secret and hidden from mass tourism. The whole northern coast of the island is enhanced by coves with small beaches, sometimes inhabited, sometimes isolated, good anchorage for yachts.

There are wine and olives, so a guest wishing to get closer to nature will stop at a small inn (Hvar "konoba") rather than a top quality restaurant. He will taste real home-made wine instead of some famous sparkling wine, he will sing the old island songs and forget the monotony of the everyday routine. Every guest is really a Guest here.

Hvar is also the name of one of the major cities of the island, situated in the western part of the island. With the largest square on the Croatian coast, it is rich in buildings of the Gothic and Renaissance.Two forts crowning the city, the fort built by the Venetians Spagnolaand. Fort Napoleon, built by the French.
