There are plenty of reasons to visit Hvar during the spring time and this year, especially. In May we have two major events taking place on the island. Come and experience, explore, cheer and take part in the Ultra-Swim 33.3 or Hvar Half-Marathon!

ULTRA-SWIM 33.3  | 17-20 May 2024

A little bit less than a 100 days from now; for the first time ever, Island Hvar will host one of the best open water swim events, equal to any world class event. The route takes you between the two beautiful and ancient locations of Stari Grad (registration and start) and Hvar Town (finish) via secret bays and stunning islands. This epic swim race covers a total of 33.3 km but spread over 4 days, including 5 to 7 swims, in a point-to-point open water “off-road” format – without laps!

Swimmers will be able to experience the best of both sides of the island, with amazing seascapes and secret bays along the way! In mid-May, mornings are crisp, while the afternoons are usually warm, reaching even above 20 degrees Celsius on the sun. The sea average is around 18 degrees Celsius and wetsuits are optional, however recommended!

Limited entries, so book now to avoid disappointment! Find our more here.

HVAR HALF MARATHON | May 25 2024

Race on one of the most beautiful islands in the world! The start is in the city of Stari Grad and the route follows the old road to the city of Hvar. This half-marathon encompasses one of the most beautiful routes in Croatia, but as many would agree, it is a challenging one due to the height difference of as much as 410 m. The first half is a 10 km climb, until you reach Vidikovac, a gorgeous lookout point. The second half is the descent to the city of Hvar. There are refreshment stations at 5km, 10km and 15km.
