Hvar & Korčula

Hvar: Popular not only for glorious beaches and its 13th Century walls, the port town of Hvar has much to explore, including the hilltop fortress, which is lit up with a stunning golden glow at night, and the main square with its Renaissance-era Hvar Cathedral.

Korčula: Famous for its dense pine forests, Korčula is one of the larger islands at around 20 miles long and almost 5 miles wide. The stunning Korčula Town is known locally as ‘little Dubrovnik’, due to its familiar looking medieval squares and churches, while the plentiful sandy beaches and quiet coves that line the southern coast are simply delightful.
