The summer season makes the city a hub of business. I was amazed at how the city does attracts so many people for business and festivities.

We preferred a calm and serene environment, renting an apartment in the outskirts of the city during the festive season. We really enjoyed the privacy we had.

Away from the tourists parts in the city, we rented bicycles and rode our way to the outskirts of Hvar to have a feel of life outside the city.

We had a quiet stroll within the city. The location is worth having a walk in the evening. we were there during the off peak season and it was pleasantly serene.
