The Hvar City Guides answer what visitors ask as soon as the ferry docks: where to eat peka without harbour prices, which Pakleni coves are worth the water taxi, what to see in Stari Grad and Jelsa and where the night goes after sunset in Hvar town. Each guide is a short, opinionated list with the reason to go, what to order and one practical tip for every place, and it opens in your browser as soon as you pay.

Three places from the guides
Dalmatino
Sveti Marak 1, Hvar town
The most refined cooking in town, from black truffle gnocchi to tuna tartare and a fish brodetto. It is a splurge, but the kitchen and the service hold steady night after night. From the food guide.
Arheološki lokalitet Faros
Vukovarska cesta 2, Stari Grad
What remains of Pharos, the Greek colony founded in 384 BC: stretches of wall and old streets, brought back to life with a virtual-reality guide. Restoration can close it, so check before you go. From the things to do guide.
Stiniva
Southwest Vis, car or scooter plus a hike
A cove tucked behind a narrow gap in the cliffs and one of the most photographed beaches in Croatia. A steep path of about 20 minutes leads down and back up, so arrive early, before it fills by midday. From the day trips guide.
Plan your days on Hvar
Day one: coffee on the square in Hvar town, the fortress and the monasteries from the things to do guide, lunch from the food guide and a sunset drink from the nightlife guide. Day two: a water taxi to the Pakleni islands from the day trips guide, or the bus to Stari Grad for the UNESCO plain and a courtyard dinner. On a rainy or slow day, the small museums in the family guide, a bakery breakfast from the budget guide and a long konoba lunch inland keep things easy.
