The Island of Hvar is one of a group of central Dalmatian islands and is the longest Croatian island, populated from early historic times. Other important settlements on the island are: Hvar, Stari Grad, Jelsa and Vrbovska. Economy are based on tourism, fishing and agriculture. The island is well known for its mild Mediterranean climate and record number of sunny hours.
