A charming mid-island town on Hvar's north coast, set in a deep bay surrounded by pine forests, vineyards, and lavender fields. Jelsa is one of Hvar island's most pleasant towns — quieter and more family-oriented than Hvar Town, with a beautiful harbour, a Baroque church, and excellent beaches including Mina beach and the sandy Gromin Dolac cove nearby. The town has a genuine local character, good restaurants, and easy access to the Hvar wine route through the fertile Stari Grad Plain.

Om de drukte van het hoogseizoen (juli–augustus) te vermijden, kies je beter voor mei–juni of september–oktober — de zee is nog warm, de prijzen zijn lager en de attracties minder druk.
