Have you ever been to a place that counts hours and hours of sun? No? Then, let us take you to the sunniest Lighthouse in Croatia. Hvar is known as the sunniest island in Europe and will surely enchant you with its beauties. Apart from the fact that it has been top party destination for years now, Hvar is also famous for its historical, cultural and gastronomic pearls of life.
Let us remember only few of them. Firstly, did you know that Hvar island’s name derives from the Greek „Pharos“, meaning the lighthouse. Sounds familiar? 😊As you may notice, our company’s logo is a lighthouse, so to always show you a perfect way to a perfect vacation.
The most famous spot in Hvar town, especially famous among the instagramers, is the town fortress called Fortica or Španjola. The best way to explore this beauty is to walk through the old town and climb up the fortress. Once you get on the top, the spectacular view on Hvar town and all the surrounding islands will captivate you. Especially if you are there in the sunset, prepare yourself to witness the most beautiful sky and sea colors mixing in the distance. Hvar is also the top wedding destination, so don’t surprise yourself if you crash a wedding party once you’re there 😊.
Another historical and cultural fact is that the first public theatre in Europe is in Hvar. So we could say it is a capital of culture as the theatre opened in long ago 1612. year. The theatre was open for all citizens, regardless of their social status. This was something that was completely uncommon for that period. During the history it wasn’t open for public for a great deal of years. But it reopened its doors recently so make sure you don’t miss this exceptional place when visiting Hvar.
Hvar island is truly a special place to enjoy your vacation among all the historical summer houses and renaissance castle of famous writers ( Hanibal Lucić and Petar Hektorović), sipping the best local vine, yet famous across the world, enjoying the local cuisine and walking through long lavender fields.
Enjoy the perfect sceneries, the bluest sea, beautiful sunsets and have a time of your life. And of course, come and visit the sunniest Lighthouse in Croatia again next year!
