7 Secret Spots in Hvar Every Girl Should Know

If you’re the kind of girl that craves a mix of adventure, relaxation, and jaw-dropping views that give you the perfect Instagrammable photo, there are seven secret spots in Hvar that will take you off the tourist trail and straight into the beating heart of Hvar’s best kept secrets.

Here’s an insider list you’re going to need for your next summer sojourn that is in Hvar, Croatia:

Bonj Les Bains

Hidden away from the harbour, Bonj Les Bains is a chic little beach club that shows off gorgeous panoramic Adriatic views. Here, you can take golden hour photos whilst sipping on cocktails all day without the crowd. Thank me later!

Pro Tip: Get there before 5 PM to snag the best view.

Jerolim Island

Just 15 minutes by boat from Hvar Town, Jerolim Island will offer you the most peaceful coves, a couple of nudist beaches, and gorgeous turquoise waters. It’s perfect if you’re a solo traveller that’s looking for privacy and relaxation.

Pro Tip: Pack your own food and your snorkel gear.

Fortica Fortress

Fortica Fortress is not exactly a secret but the western viewpoint is a hidden gem. From here, you can watch the town, harbour, and the islands.

Pro Tip: Come during late afternoon and wait for the sunset. There’s also less people at this time.

Veneranda Garden Café

Veneranda Garden Café is hidden behind stone walls and is a peaceful oasis. Unless you walk through evert single alley in Hvar, you won’t even know the place exists. You’re welcome!

Mlini Beach

You’ll need a car for this one. Mlini Beach is a quiet pebble beach where locals swim and sunbathe.

Local Tip: Bring water shoes. The pebbles can be a little hard on the feet and also slippery.

Stari Grad Fields

Stari Grad Fields is a UNESCO protected site perfect for wandering among olive trees, lavender fields, and stone paths.

Pro Tip: Visit in July for blooming lavender.

Pakleni Islands

The Pakleni Islands are a hidden archipelago of tiny coves and boutique bars. Rent a kayak or small boat and explore deserted beaches where you’ll have the beaches almost entirely to yourself.

Pro Tip: Start early to avoid the midday tourist boats.
