  • Head to the south side of the island by following the signs to Zavala. You have to go through a long, one car width, very dark tunnel and then down some steep switch backs to get to this beach - but it's worth it for the peace and tranquility/ Have lunch at Skalinada - or even rent a room from them.

  • The only way to reach Dubovica is down an unmarked trail. A bus ticket from Hvar Grad to Dubovica is 9kn. It takes about 15 minutes but is worth the effort. A wondeful secluded cove with a pebbled beach, one restaurant and if you want, a place to rent a room.

     Great restaurant tips - love the annual updates! We're heading for Hvar this summer - our first visit to the island MrL's grandmother left over 100 years ago. Looks like we're in for culinary treats as welas a walk in her footsteps. leyle

     Hmm, after reading your pages & KristaB's, I'm realizing a trip to Croatia will be as much about wonderful food as anything else!

     Luna! our favorite restaurant in Hvar. The fish soup and the grilled squid was excellent. It is a nice escape from the tourists packing the square and prominade.

     Went to your HP before replying in CRO forum, and ended up in my favorite place on Earth. Every time I pass through that tunnel towards Zavala I feel like being born again.
