If you’re staying in Split or Trogir, why not enrich your vacation in Croatia by doing some island hopping? The mainland offers a lot, but true gems are hidden a bit further. Beautiful beaches, unique coves, crystal blue sea, great food and wine… all of that (and more) can be found by exploring Croatian islands.
Hvar and Brač islands are among the most beautiful ones on the whole coast. Rich in history and stunning nature, they attract hundreds of tourists each year for a reason! But why suffer the crowds when you can take a private boat tour and spend the day just how you like it. Here’s how your day of adventure can look like!
1) Swim and sunbathe at the Golden Horn beach
The Golden Horn beach, located on the island of Brač, is one of the most famous beaches in Croatia. It is, in fact, a natural phenomenon. You see, this pebbled beach never really stays in the exact same place. It stretches out into the sea where the wind and sea currents slowly move it left to right. How’s that for a great story to tell when you get back from your vacation in Croatia?
The sea that surrounds the Golden Horn beach is of the most beautiful shade of blue! So, it’s great for swimming, snorkeling or taking a fun ride on the waves. And if you just want to relax, feel free to enjoy the sun and rest on your beach towel or in a nearby bar. It’s a day tailored to your needs, remember?
2) Explore the town of Hvar and enjoy the local food
The next stop of the tour is Hvar town on Hvar island. After starting the day at the beach, you’ll be ready to savor some tasty food and maybe even try some local wine! Hvar town is full of great restaurants offering high quality local specialties. The ingredients are often locally sourced and the fish is usually freshly caught. And don’t forget to try some ice cream!
After your stomach is full, you can choose to go on with the tour or spend some more time exploring the Hvar town for a shot of history. You can wander its aged streets, visit the Hvar Cathedral, explore a museum or the City Lodge. There is a place you don’t want to miss while you’re here, and that’s the Fortica fort. Take the time to climb to this ancient fortress that defended the city against the Turks and enjoy the stunning view of the town, sea and Pakleni Islands!
3) Cruise among the Pakleni Islands and relax in a beach bar
Now’s the time to relax and unwind again. Enjoy the cruise through the Pakleni Islands and revel in the nature that surrounds you! Feel the wind in your hair and salt on your skin. Laugh with your loved ones. Take some time to jump in the sea, swim, snorkel, play with a water toy. Or just float around! Sometimes that’s just what we need.
When you’ve had enough sea fun, come and chillax in a beach bar. Order your favorite cocktail and enjoy the beats of rhythmic music. Maybe you’ll even catch a romantic sunset! It’s hard to imagine a better way to end the day.
Are you ready to make your vacation in Croatia even better?
Hiring a local to take you on a private boat tour means you can spend your day in exploration while not being tied to a strict timeline. If you adore spending time in the sea, then you can decide to spend more time at the Golden Horn beach. On the other hand, lovers of history might want to spend the most time in the Hvar town. So, you can really tailor your experience!
