About Îles Pakleni
Les îles Pakleni forment un archipel de 21 petits îlots et rochers situés au sud-ouest de la ville de Hvar, à quelques centaines de mètres du rivage. Cette zone naturelle protégée se distingue par ses forêts denses de pins d'Alep — le nom Pakleni dérive du mot « paklina », qui désigne la poix ou la résine. L'archipel abrite de nombreuses criques de galets et quelques plages de sable, parmi lesquelles Jerolim, Stipanska et Palmizana, très fréquentées pour la baignade et le farniente. Des navettes maritimes régulières et des excursions en bateau privé relient le port de Hvar aux îles.
