On your way to one of the Hvar winemakers and passing the picturesque old road through historic villages such as Brusje and Selca, you will enjoy views of lavender fields, olive groves, and vineyards. The winery visit is followed by dinner at a secret location (in an olive grove, abandoned village, or in a private household) with an experienced chef.
This gastro tour can be a great introduction for a long night ahead. The best way to end the day in Hvar is to go dancing until sunrise, especially if there is a full moon. Walking through the narrow streets of the city centre, you will find lots of bars, terraces with D.J.s and clubs with lots of happy people. You can even ride the free taxi boats that are docked on the “riva” and you can feel the colours of Hvar’s nightlife at a beach bar on a private island.

Day 3 : Explore The Blue Cave, Green Cave And Paklini Archipelago (Speedboat Excursion)
Location: Hvar, Blue Grotto, Green Cave, Stiniva, Pakleni Otoci
Accommodation: Hotel
Meals Included: Breakfast
After a tasty breakfast, put your swimsuits on, take your favourite beach towel and other summer accessories you need, and make sure you don’t forget your sunscreen, as we are taking you to a speedboat tour. From the moment you embark the vessel, you will be enchanted by the sea cliffs and the views of the horizon.
First you will visit the Green Cave, a must stop on all the speedboat tours visiting the Vis archipelago, where you will get a chance to swim and enjoy the emerald light show.
After reaching Biševo island and its famous Blue Cave, you will disembark from the speedboat again, but this time into the Blue Cave’s dinghy which will take you directly inside the cave. During peak season there will be a queue, so please be patient and be prepared to wait up to 30 minutes or more until one of the boats is available. The shuttle ride takes about 20 min. The best time to visit Blue Cave is between 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. when the sun rays create a magnificent aquamarine light that bathes the inside of the cave and turns white objects into silver.
Please note that the itinerary is dependable upon weather conditions. Blue cave can be closed for visiting due to the weather conditions (high tide or big waves).
Besides the marvellous caves, you will discover a lot of picturesque hidden inlets, like Stiniva. In the early afternoon hours, you will cruise to a recently opened tavern situated in the Milna bay, whose interior and exterior rely on a super modern soft nature concept. This is the new place to be on the island.
Upon arrival, you will feel the tempting smells of the finest local food of Hvar Island procured and prepared by the in-house Chef.
Pamper yourself with a lunch made from local ingredients.
On our way back to Hvar town, skipper will take you swimming and snorkelling or just sunbathing and relaxing in one of the many hidden bays and lagoons of the Paklini islands archipelago.
After returning to Hvar town, go straight to the Hula Hula beach bar. The Hula Hula Hvar is a synonym for Hvar's beach dance floor that will leave you breathless with its unforgettable sunset views, grooviest music, and amazing people!
