Pakleni Otoci - Hell Islands are the prettiest part of Hvar’s, if not the of whole Croatian riviera. A playful chain of woody isles, dipped in a clear, azure sea, a few resorts and swimming areas, and a number of little, hidden away beaches, stone terraces facing sun, and beautiful deserted lagoons make, as someone said, “An Arcadia in grasp of the palm.”
The resorts from the east to the west:

Plamižana

The oldest and most famous Hvar’s resort and the nautical marina.
Palmižana (Vingradišće lagoon precisely) is a spacious lagoon with shallow and sandy beach. It is surrounded by the thick, pine forest, fragrant heather and rosemary bushes and various, exotic plants.
There are several restaurants and B&Bs.
Palmižana can be accessed by the organised, regular boat connection from the port of Hvar.
