What another fabulous video! It would have been very cool if at the top there was a Craft Brewery for a nice cold there! Great video guys! ❤️ love the bloopers!
Hey guys I’m from Croatia my Grandfather was actually born on Hvar at the other end there’s a small fishing village called Suuraj where he was from, the reason so meany people go there to party is because at night the town changes and the night life comes out but mostly in mid summer and has some of the best and most expensive clubs and bars in Croatia
Thanks for watching Matthew. Good to know about the party island history. I think what we were more curious about is why 'in general' that island. I know at night things switch to party mode but I'm very curious how partying came to be on that island vs another. :) - Trevor
Pharos means Lighthouse. It was a colony of PAROS: founded in 385/84 BC. on the coast of Dalmatia. Excavations that began in the 1980s and continue until recently have brought to light a part of the GREEK city developed in the Stari Grad plain, cemeteries and part of its walls with fortification towers. Movable finds include everyday use and product handling vessels, coins, metal, stone and bone objects, jewelry, inscriptions, clay statues, etc. Recent investigations into the study of the urban design of the ancient city, its territorial district and its defense system have revealed an impressive cultural landscape in the area of Faros, whose geometric layout seems to have been designed by the Parian settlers in the 4th century. century BC As one of the world's best preserved ancient Greek cadastral systems, the Lighthouse was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2008. In the area of historical figures of the Adriatic region, it played a leading role in the turbulent historical events of the 3rd century AD. during the wars with the romans, lighthouse highlighted one of the most debated historical figures, demetrios the lighthouse, which was eventually defeated by roman emile Paul in the famous historic battle of lighthouse in 219 BC, which is described in detail by historical Polybius.
I love the Adriatic coastline( i worked there after the war on environmental restoration projects)...the water is so amazingly beautiful i can see now in my mind....I also really like Istria...once is not enough for Croatia and Montenegro too ;-)....yes Hvar is kind of a party hub...once a place like that gets that kind of reputation its sort of self fufilling and draws a certain crowd...you're right there are so many other special islands and spots on the mainland keep posting you deserve many more subscribers
We'll have to look up Istria. We'd luv to visit more of the islands. There are so many! We'd also like to check out more on the mainland. We need more! ha. Thanks for watching Jim. - Trevor
shhhhh ;) We're a little behind. This was filmed in June. Just getting around to posting the Croatia series now to catch back up to real time. #crazyyear
we stayed at Hvar Villa Maris. And another time in some other hotel but I forgot it's been a while;) it was awesome overall Croatia is so beautiful! you guys have awesome channel! we love travelling! we have our main channel with out little one and travels:) Kids Adventures with Sweetie Fella Aleks;) maybe you wanna stop by:) let's be in touch!
1:00 "that's why it looks a lot like Italy" If you look at the Dalmatian coastline, a lot of towns and villages have the same style and most buildings on Hvar have been built after the Venetians left. It's a typical dalmatian (Croatian) style of building
You missed highest point of Hvar, a smaller fortification build by Napoleon while France concerted Declamation coast (Another west European conquerors Croats were enslaved by).
Have you visited the Pakleni Islands, the little islets off Hvar - pure nature? There is a night club at Stipanska islet in the open, under the pine trees, has to be experienced for party goers
Hi, I'm heading Croatia in the summer and was watching your videos on the island as research, did you prefer Hvar or Vis, and which had more to do from a non party prospective, planning to stay for a couple of days so need places to eat etc
@@kingkenny334 think it depends where you stay. Brac is lovely but we preferred Hvar. We stayed in Stari Grad, beautiful.! We are heading to Korcula later this year, hope that’s even better. 😁
You missed high tourist season. Town is usualy packed to to the fullest. Marina is full of high end luxury yachts with celebs from around world. I was there when Tom Cruise,Dwayne Johnson,Vin Diesel arrived. So Hvar is IT place to be in august.
Hi, great video ! I will be in Hvar next week and am curious how long it took you to hike up to the fortress? We only have two days there, want to plan our time wisely.
Wtf are you talking about? This video is definitelly not in winter time, it is summer. And it's not 20+ C, it is mostly less than 15 now and more rain and wind.
Mljet, one of the Croatian National Parks, has two salty lakes and an islet on the bigger lake. The air smells of wild plants and herb there. Korcula is beautifu too. Don't miss Kornati Archipelago, another National Park, take a day trip from Zadar or Sibenik.
Croatia is the best better than Hawaii Jamaica Spain Italy Montenegro Albania Greace Florida California Haiti Mexico or eny Riviera #111111111111111111
Hi Jeff & Anna, just in Hvar tonight, Jesus.... It is full of coked up Yupies. I have loved Croatia yet Hvar is seriously the ass end of culture. Much prefer Bol. No you are not wrong. I can' think of any reason to visit this island.
Ahhhhh Noo Trevor.. I meant you - literally just got in the door from Croatia. Loved Vis Starigrad and Markaska (probably spelt them all wrong) and went to the Biokovo national park and did a hike along the massive mountain (1762 meters elevation). Absolutely magical. Fell in love with Croatia and cant wait to go back.
What another fabulous video! It would have been very cool if at the top there was a Craft Brewery for a nice cold there! Great video guys! ❤️ love the bloopers!
There is! Well I’m not sure about the beer but there is a cafe at the top.
This video was so fun and educational! I decided to do a fun school project about Hvar, and this video gave me so many great facts. Thank you so much!
Woohoo! Glad we could help you out a little 😃 - Anna

What month did you go visit Hvar?
Late May 👍
Heading to Hvar in early October. Looks beautiful ❤️ You say it’s not your favourite Island.....what would be?
Brac. But we like quiet islands - Anna
Thanks for the reply Anna. I may pop over to Brac if there’s a ferry from Hvar as I no they are close.
@@kingkenny334 think it depends where you stay. Brac is lovely but we preferred Hvar. We stayed in Stari Grad, beautiful.! We are heading to Korcula later this year, hope that’s even better. 😁

Green Lightning ha yeah we know. We went in low season on purpose. Loved it! 🤗- T
Hi, great video ! I will be in Hvar next week and am curious how long it took you to hike up to the fortress? We only have two days there, want to plan our time wisely.
It was really quick... 20 mins maybe.. so worth it. Have a blast! - Anna
Yes took us 20 mins too and we are a lot older.😂

Wtf are you talking about? This video is definitelly not in winter time, it is summer. And it's not 20+ C, it is mostly less than 15 now and more rain and wind.
toni you fucking degenerate. when was the video uploaded
This was filmed in June
Did you guys stay in Hvar or did a day trip ?
We stayed in Hvar yes. Then eventually we did a trip to the Blue Cave - Trevor
@@DelightfulTravellers thanks !! Thinking to do Brac and Korcula, skip Hvar esp in August.
What are the best islands to visit in Croatia?
In our opinion (and we haven't been to all) Vis and Brac. - Anna
I will check those out in September, spending 2 weeks in Croatia with 1 week in the Split/Makarska area. Thanks for the tip!
Mljet, one of the Croatian National Parks, has two salty lakes and an islet on the bigger lake. The air smells of wild plants and herb there. Korcula is beautifu too. Don't miss Kornati Archipelago, another National Park, take a day trip from Zadar or Sibenik.

Cruise ships stop there is the reason it is like that.
That's one reason for sure. I think it's also a straight up party destination though. - Trevor

Hi Jeff & Anna, just in Hvar tonight, Jesus.... It is full of coked up Yupies. I have loved Croatia yet Hvar is seriously the ass end of culture. Much prefer Bol. No you are not wrong.
I can' think of any reason to visit this island.
hahah we hear you! But who is Jeff? 😆 - Trevor
Ahhhhh Noo Trevor.. I meant you - literally just got in the door from Croatia. Loved Vis Starigrad and Markaska (probably spelt them all wrong) and went to the Biokovo national park and did a hike along the massive mountain (1762 meters elevation). Absolutely magical. Fell in love with Croatia and cant wait to go back.
haha.. Croatia is our fav for a reason. Sounds like you just found it why! What a place right?! - Trevor
