Port of Jelsa

Jelsa is a charming former maritime and wine town on Hvar island that's become a go-to tourist spot, and its small harbour is a great base to settle into. You'll find water and electricity available around the clock, solid moorings, and a marinero who goes out of their way to help. Don't expect a big, bustling port — this place is compact and laid-back, which is honestly part of the appeal.
