  Hvar Island  is covered with vineyards and olive groves and is surrounded by a translucent cobalt sea.     With the arrival of the Croats in the Middle Ages, Hvar achieved renown and power as an important port and part of the Venetian marine empire. Under Venetian rule, Hvar grew rich exporting wine, figs and fish. Despite social and political changes through the years, the island has kept its artistic activity, and, with the exception of Dubrovnik, the island was the greatest center of early Croatian literature, architecture, sculpture, painting and music.
