Is a day trip to Hvar enough?

If you're visiting Croatia, I would really recommend a day trip to Hvar Town. Hvar is one of the most popular islands in Croatia and I can see why – I loved spending the day here. The charming old town, beautiful scenery and range of great places to eat and drink make it a fabulous place to visit.
