Zbog svog izrazito važnog položaja u središtu glavnih pomorskih putova, na Hvaru je povijest ostavila brojne tragove, možda više no na bilo kojem drugom jadranskom otoku. Stalne borbe za prevlast koje su se vodile na ovom području između raznih osvajača samo su potvrda značaja i vrijednosti koju je ovaj teritorij imao od davnina.Prvi dokazi života na ovom prostoru potječu još od prapovijesnog doba kada je pronalascima bojane keramike u Markovoj i Grapčevoj špilji definirana zasebna Hvarska kultura. Zanimljivost je da je najstariji prikaz lađe u Europi pronađen upravo na fragmentima jedne posude iz Grapčeve špilje.Danas je Hvar često nazivan "hrvatskim St-Tropezom", te je jedan od najpopularnijih hrvatskih otoka. Grad Hvar je postao glavno odredište za zabavu iz svih krajeva svijeta. Jedna od glavnih značajki Hvara je sunčevo svjetlo. Otok Hvar ima 2718 sunčanih sati godišnje, što ga čini najsunčanijim hrvatskim otokom.

Mirijam
For me it is one of the most picturesque islands in Croatia with good infrastructure.
Mertens
Hvar is a must-see for every adventure lover and renaissance art enthusiast. I greatly enjoyed the serenity at the island's cathedrals, especially during sunsets. The glorious evenings are some of my most memorable moments.
Weber
I had a nice time taking strolls in the island's beautiful streets and lit squares. The locals sit in the beautiful terraces and sidewalks and it was nice talking with them over a cup of coffee enjoying the deep tranquility.
Bakker
The island has some very cool places to enjoy solitude. I particularly enjoyed visiting the old monasteries and quietly sat lost in my thoughts. I left feeling very recharged and ready to take on the world.
Mayer
Hvar Island has some eerie vibe like you are stepping back in time especially with the clock towers and pieces of architecture dating back to the 1500s. I really learned a lot about ancient history from the knowledgeable guides.
Andersson
Hvar island boasts of some terrific fortresses and castles with large displays of historical artifacts. I especially enjoyed the picture-perfect steep stairways ascending to the castles. I cherish every moment I spent on this sunny island.

I had the time of my life at the island's beaches. The glassy blue Adriatic sea waters are so clear that people on the beach look like they are suspended in the air. I Can't wait to book another trip.
