Hvar and Pakleni Islands Tour Experience

Hvar Town

A Dalmatian hotspot, Hvar town has a long and vibrant history as a cultural and tourism center of the Adriatic.

Pakleni Islands

A group of small islands adorned with hidden beaches and bays and abundant in authentic Mediterranean restaurants.

Milna, island Brac

Your chance to taste local Dalmatian wines.

After we gather for the tour, we’ll head over to the main port in Split where we’ll depart. It’ll take us about 20 minutes to reach the ‘Gates of Split’, a small channel that runs between the islands of Brač and Šolta. After we’ve made it through, you’ll notice the island of Hvar in the distance, clear as day. You’ll even be able to make out the pines of its green hillsides, thriving vineyards, olive groves, and lavender fields!

Before you know it, we’ll pull into the port of Hvar town – a former military base, the birthplace of organized tourism in Europe, and home to the oldest public theatre in Europe, which has roots back to 1612.

Today, Hvar is not only known for its history, but for its glamour, first-class clientele, and multi-million-dollar yachts.

Hvar town

A palm-tree-lined promenade, shiny cobblestone streets, Venetian stone houses, and a mid-16th-century fortress looming above; congratulations, you’ve made it to Hvar town. Its ancient alleyways reveal one of the largest squares in Dalmatia, as well as the prized St. Stephen’s Cathedral and the Renaissance theatre.

Complete with pebble beaches, first-class restaurants, and high-end boutiques, Hvar is an oasis of luxury for travelers around the world, and a dream for anyone after an island escape.

You will have enough time in Hvar to wander its alleyways and beautifully ornamented palaces or cool off at one of the many seaside bars and restaurants. The one thing you should not miss is a visit to Hvar’s most recognizable landmark: the Fortica fortress. High up above Hvar town, the hike to the top isn’t as bad as it looks, and you’ll be glad you did it in the end – the views from the top stretch from the town’s red rooftops to the Pakleni islands. Not only will this make your Instagram profile, but it’ll stay locked in your memory for a lifetime.

Pakleni Islands

The Pakleni islands are a group of forested islands that stretch out in front of Hvar town. Legend has it that the Pakleni islands developed as the product of a secret love between Poseidon, the Greek God of the sea, and a nymph.

You’ll have the chance to explore this island oasis as we navigate our speedboat through the series of canals, uncovering the intact nature and raw beauty of the archipelago. ‘Pakleni’ is popularly translated as ‘Hell’s islands’, though it originally derived from ‘paklina’ or the pine resin once used to coat ships.

These islands are a haven for yachts and small boats, as its hidden inlets and secluded coves are ideal for diving, swimming or fishing. You’ll have the chance to post up amongst the pines with a clear view of the sea ahead and enjoy a picnic or a bottle of wine. Or, if you’d rather sit for lunch, St. Klement island, the largest of the Pakleni, offers several restaurants with an exquisite selection of freshly caught fish and seafood. We recommend you visit the famous Zori restaurant for an exceptional dining experience and an unbelievable view of Palmižana bay.

And if you aren’t hungry but want to enjoy the views of Palmižana bay, you can secure a spot at the famous Laganini beach. Grab a cold cocktail, listen to the sweet sounds of music, and embrace this bit of bliss.

Milna wine tasting, island Brac

We can’t head back to Split without a stop in Milna, a charming seaside village on the island of Brač where you get to taste some of the local wines.

After a full and sun-kissed day on Croatia’s best islands, you’ll have time to unwind on the smooth and scenic ride back to Split.
