  • PAKLENI ISLANDS

    An absolute must-see when on Hvar. While there are many bays and beaches on Pakleni, the ones we definitely recommend forThi your bachelor or bachelorette trip would be Carpe Diem beach on Stipanska bay, which is an ideal lounge destination, where you can have lunch and enjoy a massage while listening to some good house beats. Another great spot for daytime chill and parties is Laganini beach bar. Their famous chefs will take care of good food for you, while their resident DJs will set the right mood for the amazing ambiance that this bar is located in.

    A stretch of land that has the most beautiful beaches on Hvar island is definitely its south shore. When planning your bachelor party, make sure to leave at least one day to explore the beauties of this beautiful shore. There are numerous locations to visit, some of our favorites being the following: Red rocks, Zaraće, Dubovica, Lučišća and Borce. What will amaze you the most about these beaches is the crystal clear color of the sea and the intact nature, so make sure to do some snorkeling as well. Bays are located below the vineyards on the slopes so the ambiance is very scenic. Another bonus point is that the beaches on the south shore of Hvar island are less crowded than most beaches in the immediate vicinity of Hvar town, so make sure you and your bachelor friends don’t miss it! An important thing to note is that the most beautiful of those spots are not reachable (or are hard to reach) without a boat. While you may hire a car or rent a scooter to visit some of the bays, we recommend hiring a speedboat to experience the “full thing”.

THINGS TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT WHEN ORGANIZING A BACHELOR OR A BACHELORETTE PARTY

  • NO HUNGOVER BOATING: Do boating activities before you do a night out, not right after, otherwise you might have a miserable time. A great way to pull it off would be to do a boat tour during the day, maybe bring some drinks on board and do a warm-up. You can ask your skipper to finish your boat trip in Hula Hula beach bar on Hvar, where the party usually starts around 5-6 pm. You can continue your party venture from there.
    A bad scenario would be to do a night out, stay out at Carpe diem until 6 am, and try to do your boating the same day. If this does happen, we advise buying Dramina at the local pharmacy.
  • BOOK AHEAD: As stated, Hvar is becoming an increasingly popular destination, with the number of its visitors increasing every year by 5-10 percent. It does not surprise then that most of the good accommodations and service providers are booked well in advance. What is more, if you come with a larger group, it will be almost impossible to find good options in July and August. Therefore, we advise you to book most of your services a couple of months in advance, so that you don’t lose your spot.
  • PLAN YOUR OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES FOR THE FIRST PART OF YOUR STAY, that way you can easily postpone them should the weather not be good. This goes especially for sea activities. In case of high winds or strong rain, you might not be able to do your trip on the day you scheduled it for. Don’t let this scare you though, the weather on Hvar is perfect most of the time, but this advice is just to be on the safe side.
