Humac

One of the must visits on Hvar, Humac is an abandoned shepherd's village with a wonderful atmosphere and stunning stone ruins.

Declared an eco-village, the food at Konoba Humac is a throwback to authentic Dalmatian dining. Situated in the front of the village, it has spectacular views of the Adriatic and mainland beyond.

Not to be outdone, why not spend the night at Murvica's - the only accommodation in Humac - and have the village to yourself, complete with outdoor shower overlooking the sea?

The restaurant is the starting point for the excellent tour of Grapceva Cave, which is available from June to September, and by arrangement. Look out for the impressive horses which live in the area, and if there on a Friday, you may catch the disabled children's horse riding lessons.
