Welcome to Total Hvar

Welcome to the island of Hvar, one of the most magical corners of the planet. Known as Croatia's premier island, the sunniest in all year, one of the world's most beautiful, the island with the most UNESCO heritage in the world (and that doesn't include the oldest public theatre in Europe), Hvar is an island with something for everyone. Its wines are exported all over the world, from California to China, its healthy Mediterranean diet part of UNESCO heritage. Get lost in the sailing paradise that is the Pakeni islands, cycle the roads world champions use for winter training, kayak to the hidden coves. Immerse yourselves in history in the historic towns and villages dating back thousands of years, and after another hard day at the beach, check out some of the most vibrant nightlife on the Adriatic. 

2018 sees 150 years of organised tourism in Europe, just one more thing that started on Hvar, with the founding of the Hvar Healthy Society in 1868. Join us on a journey of exploration of this fabulous slice of paradise. Total Hvar was founded in October 2011. Now in its 7th year, it is established as the prime and most reliable source of information about the island.

25 Reasons to Visit Jelsa in 2016. 7. One of the Best Nudist Camps in the Area

One of the best nudist camps is located in Vrboska near Jelsa. The whole area has a long tradition in naturism. It was here, at the small island Zečevo opposite the nudist camp, where the whole naturism expansion started many years ago. And while many similar camps in the area closed their doors, Camp Nudist is welcoming its returning guest, year after year, proving to be one of the best places to walk, swim and relax clothes-free.

Kino Mediteran: Great Movies this Friday

I would like to unschool my child. That would mean, no kindergarten, no preschool and no school. I made a decision, when she was a one-year old knowing, that it will not be easy in Croatia (there is no legal option for homeschooling here). Back than, I still had time, but as she grows older and her 6th birthday is getting closer and closer, I am even more curious whether or not I am going to make it here on Hvar.
