Among the coastal settlements of Split-Dalmatia County, Vira stands out for its sheltered position on the northern shore of Hvar Island, facing the Adriatic Sea and the Hvar Channel. The small bay lies close to Hvar Town, where limestone slopes meet the coast and a local road follows the shoreline. Vira has a quieter character than the town’s busy harbour, yet remains closely linked to Hvar’s principal historic centre. Hvar Town carries a strong Venetian-era legacy, including Hvar Theatre, founded in 1612 and regarded as one of Europe’s oldest public theatres.
