Limestone and sky above Zavala

Zavala, the quiet south side of Hvar

A small village by the sea, reached by crossing the island and travelling down to its southern coast. Pebble beaches, little coves and wide Adriatic views await below.

Coves along the coast

A village at its own pace

The water is clear and the coast is made for swimming and snorkelling. A lit path connects parts of the village in the evening. Zavala has a small shop and a few restaurants.

The day ends with the crickets and a soft sea breeze.
