Jelsa is a small fishing town around 20km east of Hvar town. With several restaurants, bars and ice-cream cafes it has a charming, family feel. It is a great base to go on and explore from, with day trips to Brac Island and lots of places to hire bikes and scooters.

The catamaran goes once a day from Split to Jelsa via Brac Island and costs no more than a few pounds. Word of warning though: the bus services to and from Jelsa are somewhat limited.

While I was recently visiting Croatia on a property buying excursion, I headed out to the island of Hvar for a few days to relax and forget about things for a while. Whilst wandering around the old square, I came across a sign for a company offering adventure tours. I opted for one of their slightly less adventurous options, a sailing trip to the isalnd of Vis. I have to say, I had an absolutely fabulous day - the crew were so friendly, Vis was amazing, and I even had a go at steering the boat! So, if you're on Hvar and fancy something a bit different, be sure to look them up!
