Jerolim is an islet, part of Pakleni archipelago, directly opposite Hvar town - one of the hottest summer destinations in Croatia. There is a popular nude beach visited also by many gays.
Gays mostly gather at the south-east shore of the islet of Jerolim. The beach is rocky with some pebble coves and it is equipped with showers and a restaurant.

To get there take one of many taxi boats leaving Hvar harbor. They are departing every half hour starting 9am, and returning in the same intervals with the last one at 7pm. When you get to the jetty turn right and walk some 100m along the shore until you reach the area with mostly gay couples, singles, lesbian couples and bisexuals. The gay area is about 300m long all along the east side of the island, and it is one of the busiest gay beaches in Croatia

The busiest time is August when Hvar is packed with mostly Italian tourists.
Food and beverages can be found at the restaurant near the jetty. The restaurant is open from June-September.

Photos above: Paths and the jetty - this is where taxi boats are arriving and leaving back for Hvar town.

And when you're done with sunbathing and swimming, enjoy many of Hvar town bars with Carpe Diem - a famous posh bar for beautiful and fashionable people - being at the top of the list of the most popular bars among gay men.

Vrboska Beach can be found in the Bay of Vrboska, after the Nudist camp outside Vrboska Village, which is situated not far from Jelsa in the northern part of Hvar Island.

The beach is not as popular as the Jerolim Beach outside Hvar Town, but then, if you are staying in Vrboska or Jelsa this is a closer choice. To get to the beach turn left out to the peninsula Glavica after passing the camping-site.

Behind the last pier with the light house (red one) there is a nudist beach where you can meet gay people from all over the world. On the map shown here ( image to the right) the beach is located between Jelsa's main city port and Mina bay, on Gradina peninsula.

The beach is on the small peninsula with the cemetery and a camping area. All around the peninsula there is a nice walking path from which one can go in a pine forest that is covering all peninsula and which can be cruisy.

The beach is not just for nudists. It is mixed and there are lot of people that just take a walk around peninsula looking for adventure (it is usually after swimming time around 6-7 PM).

Beach is close to the center of Jelsa, main hotels and camping area, so it is very convenient for anyone visiting Jelsa.
