Port of Hvar

Perfect(?) place for the ladies to sunbathe? nevertheless it seems they were having a good time!

Fortica, the Medieval fortress built on the top of the mountain to help to defend against the Turks

The marina

You can rent a water taxi if you want to go to the nearby islands/beaches... don't think the red one is for hire though

Another 'submarine' that will not submerge. It seems this is a very popular attraction as I can find it everywhere in Croatia

Most of the ships in the marina are smaller boats rather than larger yachts as found in other parts of the Mediterranean

Occasionally one will also find some luxurious yachts moorred in the marina

Cruise ships do come to Hvar, but only smaller boats. Most of them prefer to moor near Split

If you walk away from the town centre along the port you will find another part of Hvar. Straight ahead if the Franciscan Monastery

Loggia and the clock tower. Used to be a courthouse but now the loggia is served as spa salon, café, reading room, and dance hall and is the meeting place of Croatia's social elite.
