Sail and Bike Croatia / Hvar

View from our anchor place to the small town Hvar
The town is situated in a small bay on the south coast of the island of Hvar. Surrounded by karstic hills that rise steeply from the sea.
Since the soil consists mainly of limestone and dolomite, groundwater is scarce on the island. Olives, wine, lavender and rosemary are cultivated where the soil conditions permit.
The island of Hvar
The island of Hvar is also called the queen of the Croatian Dalmatian islands. Since ancient times, it has been famous for its important strategic and nautical position, the richness of its various historical eras, its culture, natural monuments and literature.
Because of the mild climate, warm winters and pleasant summers many guests come to Hvar.
