Preparing your trip to Hvar: advices & hints - things to do and to obey

1. Those who are fond of natural attractions and hiking are recommended to go for a trip in June. At that time the island is particularly compelling because of blooming fields of lavender and oleander.
2. Public transport on the island is virtually absent, so it’s better to rent a car to travel through its territory. This will require an international driving license, a passport and a credit card with the desired amount for deposit. Motobike is another common mode of transport on the island.
3. There are all kinds of accommodation options on the island, including fine hotels and modest budget hostels. It should be noted that many budget hotels are situated in the capital; it may sound interesting for thrifty travelers.
4. The island is dominated by restaurants that specialize in fish dishes. Fans of other culinary delights have to note that virtually every dining place offers classic European and international dishes, so it won’t be difficult to find a suitable place to rest.
5. You can buy interesting crafts and cosmetics of lavender as souvenirs; they are sold literally everywhere. Local wines are other popular souvenirs; it is recommended to buy them in special stores. Copyright www.orangesmile.com
