Hvar adventure

ABOUT HVAR ADVENTURE

Everything happens for a reason. Even the most incredible things. The same happened with us. We have doneexactly what people around us said would be impossible – work together and stay friends. The more they kept saying so, the more our challenge grew. All of us had been for many years involved in different sports and activities, (sailing, kayaking, rock climbing, mountaineering), but this was a new thing and none of us knew if it would work.
We met as four totally different people, four individuals who hardly knew each other. However, all our differences and individual qualities brought out shared love that put us together – love and responsibility towards the nature, adventure, freedom…and these made decision for us.
Is it possible to do things you like, make them your living, at the same time not being harmful to your environment? To bring (as many) people (as we can) to the nature and simplicity of life with a minimum of technology? We found the way and set out to achieve our goals.
Using four basic elements: earth, air, water, fire (in us), in combination with sail, paddle, rope, and our bodies as tools, we manage to make ourselves and people around us happier…
Are we doing fine? We leave you the answer…

ABOUT HVAR ADVENTURE TOURS

If you really want to get familiar with all the beauties of the island of Hvar, the best way is to join one of the tours we offer. You can join us for a day or for a week programs.
We will take you to the best spots to experience its natural wonders and the unspoiled way of living. Depending on your preferences you may choose between a trekking tour taking you through hidden valleys to mountain peaks with a spectacular 360-degree view or a sailing tour taking you first round the labyrinth of the fabulous Pakleni archipelagos and then to the island of Vis. Or instead of taking advantage of the sea breeze you might choose to rely on your own powers and paddle in a sea kayak along the coast. Knowing it could be difficult to make up your mind, we have decided to offer different multi-day programs that include various activities and itineraries. This just one of the programs avalible.

Today, just like then, the islands are covered with thick pine woods providing refreshing shade even during the hottest summer days. Besides the well-known beach of Palmižana, the route through narrow straits and along the islands reveals to you small hidden pebble beaches where you can enjoy the privilege of having, at least temporarily, a beach of your own.
