Pakleni Islands

Neighbors of the island of Hvar
Nestled in a serene bay on northeastern Vis Island, the quaint town of Vis is a mosaic of history and modern allure. Born from the unification of Kut and Luka and marked by the 16th-century construction of Gospa od Spilica, Vis is a testament to resilience and transformation. Once a strategic military zone, it bloomed into a vibrant tourist haven post-World War II, especially after Croatia’s demilitarisation in the early 1990s. With about 2000 residents, Vis exudes an old-world Mediterranean charm, harmoniously blended with contemporary life. It’s a place where history whispers from ancient ruins and verdant fields, inviting exploration and tranquilly.
