How to Visit Hvar, Croatia — Underwater Wineries, the Cleanest Swimming Water in Europe, and Bioluminescent Caves
"“As you approach the island of Hvar by boat, you're immediately captivated by the striking contrast of vibrant blue waters and lush green landscapes adorned with vineyards, olive groves, and pine,” said Ante Lacman, owner. “And this stunning scenery is complemented by a rich tapestry of history and culture.” The operation focuses on small-batch natural wines sourced from the island's native grapes, with tastings served on an outdoor terrace perched over the Adriatic. Lacman also emphasizes the island's living culture and hospitality: “The spirit of the Croatian people is infectious; we cherish laughter and camaraderie. My mother, at 80 years old, effortlessly walks 22 kilometers a day. I invite you to visit Croatia, immerse yourself in Hvar’s charm, and experience our way of life — it's an experience that will leave you irrevocably enchanted,” says Lacman." - Kristin Braswell Kristin Braswell Kristin Braswell is a travel journalist and the founder of CrushGlobal Travel.
