Location

Directions

If you are coming by car you can find all the necessary information on Croatian highways and tolls at www.hak.hr
There are two ferry lines that take passengers and cars to the island of Hvar: daily ferry lines Split-Stari Grad (island of Hvar) and daily ferry lines Drvenik-Sućuraj (island of Hvar). If your final destination is somewhere on the eastern part of the island (the surroundings of Sućuraj, Gdinj) or you are driving from the direction of Dubrovnik or Sarajevo, the closest ferry port on the island of Hvar is the one in Sućuraj, but if you are intended for the central part of the island (the surroundings of Jelsa, Stari Grad and the city of Hvar) and are coming from Split, the closest ferry port is in Stari Grad. From Stari Grad there is a 10-minute drive to Jelsa and a 15-minute drive to the city of Hvar. If you are coming to the island of Hvar by car through the Sućuraj ferry port, we recommend you to have a full tank, since the closest gas station from the port of Sućuraj is 77 kilometres away. The road from Sućuraj to Jelsa is quite winding and narrow, so the entire drive from Sućuraj to the city of Hvar takes an hour and a half.

Neighborhood

According to the Traveller magazine from 1997, what makes Hvar one of the most desirable vacation destinations and undoubtedly one of the ten most beautiful islands in the world is its untouched nature, a clear blue sky, crystal clear sea, lovely coves and beaches, scents and nuances of the picturesque lavender fields, vineyards, olive groves, as well as numerous historical and cultural sights and hospitable locals.

Exuberant and riotous in the summer, sunny and quiet in the winter, Hvar is an attractive destination throughout the year. Mild temperatures even during the winter months have made Hvar a synonym for a warm and pleasant spring amidst winter. Visitors who have once felt its beauty exposed to the sun come back every year with equal delight.
