Island of Hvar
Due to its extremely important position in the center of the main sea routes, history has left many traces on Hvar, perhaps more than on any other Adriatic island. The constant struggles for supremacy that have been waged in this area between the various invaders are only a confirmation of the significance and value that this territory has had since ancient times.The first evidence of life in this area dates back to prehistoric times, when the discovery of painted pottery in Marko and Grapčeva Caves defined a separate Hvar culture. It is interesting that the oldest representation of a ship in Europe was found on fragments of a vessel from Grapcheva shpilja.Today, Hvar is often called the "Croatian St-Tropez", and is one of the most popular Croatian islands. The town of Hvar has become a major destination for entertainment from all over the world. One of the main features of Hvar is sunlight. The island of Hvar is blessed with 2718 hours of sunshine a year, which makes it the sunniest Croatian island.

Hvar island proved to be a very spectacular place, especially the port where I could enjoy the panoramic view of the sea and watch the beautiful ships. It's a very pretty island.

I fell in love with this island particularly the crystal clear and white stoned bays where I got to enjoy swimming. We letter went sailing and i enjoyed the glorious uninterrupted views of the sea. I can't wait to return.

I was pretty entertained on the island especially the wine bars where I became friends with lots of other cheerful wine lovers. The wine tasting left me very enchanted and I still yearn to visit the island again.

Hvar islands boat trips were very recreational and I and my friends got to enjoy snorkeling in the island's pristine and secluded coves. The whole experience left us soothed and rejuvenated.

What I particularly reminisce about during my trip to Hvar Island was waking up to the enchanting smell emanating from the vast lavender gardens. We even bought lavender and olive oils, honey, and rosemary.

Hvar's reputation as a hot spot of night parties never disappointed especially the VIP clubs where we spotted lots of celebrities as we enjoyed our cocktails and good music.

My trip to this island was a wondrous and informative trip especially its well-preserved renaissance residences with nice-looking arcades and walled gardens. Hvar has a very magical vibe.
