Best beaches in Hvar

It’s hard to pinpoint one best beach on Hvar, they are all so different and gorgeous. These are my favourite...
Pokonji dol is the nicest beach in Hvar town. It is a 20 minutes nice walk along the coast from Hvar town. You can also drive to Pokojni Dol and there’s a spacious free parking right next to the beach. There are two restaurants, sun beds & umbrellas for rent. From Pokonji dol you can easily walk a little bit further to Mekićevica beach or Robinson beach which are quieter and beautiful.
