The beaches in Island of Hvar are generally rocky - pebble, situated in bays, surrounded by pine forests. There are also several natural sandy beaches, mostly on the north side of the island. If you just want to spend a few hours on the beach, you have some smaller beaches on each side of the town; the closest one from the city centre is the one by the Franciscan monastery. Also, you can try Hula hula and Falco beach bar.

The most beautiful beaches and restaurants are on the Pakleni islands. We recommend Palmižana! There are taxi boats that drive to the islands, alternatively or you can rent the boat (we have that in offer as well).
