                                                        Today we visited the “Venetian Dream on Hvar”
                                                        We dropped anchor at the small island of Scedro, with its quiet coves and pristine beauty providing
                                                        the most irresistible backdrop for lunch.  Continuing  westward for a swim in the crystal clear waters
                                                        of the emerald Pakleni Islands, before crossing over to Hvar - the island of sunshine, lavender, sage
                                                        and wine.
                                                        We followed the gorgeous white stone, laid down by the Venetians to Hvar town's magnificent main
                                                        square, considered one of the country's most beautiful.  Lined with chic cafes, it unfurls onto the
                                                        yacht-filled harbour, with the photogenic Renaissance Cathedral forming a stunning backdrop.
                                                        There was time to enjoy the secluded beaches, tiny fish restaurants.
