The island of Hvar is Croatia's sunniest place (it has 2724 sunny hours every year) and most luxurious island, and hence, most superlatives in this country and consider it their top carrier. This island is also famous for its aromatic herbs like heather and rosemary as well as the lavender fields and verdancy that it has.

The other two towns of this island namely, Jelsa and Stari Grad have more discerning charms and are quieter. Hence, they are good alternatives for you.

Rab

Rab is nestled between the Pag and Krk islands, and hence, it is one of the most enticing in Croatia.

In the interior of Rab you will find fertile land that mountains protect from cold winds to allow people to cultivate vegetables, grapes, and olives. Lagoons and coves that stretch to the strikingly beautiful Suha Punta resort and Kalifront cape fringe the northwest peninsula that emerges from Supetarska Draga, while the Lopar Peninsula that boasts of sandy beaches has taken over the northeast of this island.

Vis

This is a mysterious island that is not on the trodden path and has remained off limits to visitors from other countries for approximately forty years. You should explore it because it has one of the few real eco-holiday options of Croatia and three small fishing villages.
