Camp Vira

On the Croatian holiday island of Hvar, the family-friendly Camp Vira is located on the natural rocky coast of the island. Thanks to the small, private pebble beach, holidaymakers can spend a relaxing time on the crystal-clear, turquoise-blue Adriatic Sea. A varied sports programme and the green forests in the island's interior attract active holidaymakers and hikers to the well-kept campsite. Dog owners can also holiday here with their beloved four-legged friends.

Family-friendly campsite in a shady pine grove

Camp Vira on the coast of the holiday island of Hvar is characterised by its unique location in the middle of a heavily tiered and partially terraced pine grove. Each of the more than 180 pitches on the 12-hectare site lies under the spreading and shady crowns of the gnarled pine trees and, thanks to the terraced elevations, offers a magnificent view of the bay below and the neighbouring small fishing harbour. If you follow the wide paths to the sea, you will find a 100 metre long and up to 25 metre wide pebble beach tucked away on the unspoilt rocky coast. There are flat sunbathing areas on flat rocks. If you prefer something a little more exciting, you can hire a pedalo or canoe and explore the coast of the island of Hvar from a completely new perspective. Families with children will love the children's programme, a game of table tennis or mini golf. Even dog owners have plenty of space on the spacious pitches to play with their beloved four-legged friends in the shade or go for walks through the cool pine forests. Dogs are very welcome at Camp Vira: With its own dog shower, cooling off during the hot summer days is guaranteed. Guests can find Croatian and Mediterranean specialities in the campsite's own restaurant and small supermarket.

Excursions and activities on the lavender island

The island of Hvar is not only known for its romantic pebble beaches and the turquoise waters of the Adriatic: Above all, olive groves and vineyards, but also lavender fields characterise the face of the island. This has given Hvar its apt nickname of Lavender Island. Visitors can look over the shoulders of the locals as they practise their traditional craft on bike tours and hikes to the vineyards and lavender growers. But there is also a fascinating underwater world off the coast: even beginners can try out diving and snorkelling accompanied by professionals from the nearby diving schools on Hvar. The small capital of Hvar is known above all for its historical buildings from different periods of history. St. Stephen's Square is the centre of Hvar. Here you will find the cathedral, the arsenal and the former governor's palace.
