DISCOVER BEACH KAMENJARA AND BOTA WIND SURF CENTER WITH ME!

My project of discovering the most beautiful beaches and bays on island Hvar and sharing them with you continues. This long and narrow sunny island is so diverse in its beauty that it never ceases to amaze me. It's like a little universe in itself. Trust me there are still moments when the beauty of island Hvar leaves me speechless. Today I'm happy to announce that I have found another magnificent beach to share with you. This beach is called Kamenjara ( kamen stands for rock in Croatian so basically it is a rocky terrain we're talking about). Kamenjara is located in immediate vicinity of Soline beach. Basically you just walk over to the other side of this peninsula and you'll be there in two minutes. While Soline beach offers a view of Vrboska village and Jelsa village, Kamenjara beach faces the other side and offers you a magnificent panorama of Croatian coastline and Brač island. There is also a wind surf center Bota if you're into water sports. I believe this wind surf center is open only during the warmer months as all the wind surfing gear was locked up when we visited yesterday. It was still a little cold to swim in the gorgeous Adriatic, but the sea sure looked tempting. However, there are only ten days to spring. Hopefully, spring will come quickly, put an end to horrible corona virus and then you can all come and visit this gorgeous beach.
As I explained fighting the temptation to throw myself into these pristine waters was hard, but I somehow managed by reminding myself that spring isn't too far away. The spot I liked best in this area is one right next to the wind surf center. There is a small pebble beach there and the entrance to the water is so beautiful. That is where I would love to come to sunbathe and swim. I love the rocks here, they are so flat and will be perfect for sunbathing. This peninsula is composed of mostly pebble and rocky beaches. It offers peace and quiet as well as gorgeous beaches. I have to say that I really like the ones I have seen so far. This one is truly gorgeous, I cannot wait to come back here. It is great for trekking as well. I don't know about you but I like nothing better than climbing stones. I grew up climbing rocks and walking on rocky terrains. I think that is where I get my sense of balance from. I love climbing rocky cliffs. It's a great work out as well. Trekking in vicinity of water is very relaxing and has many health benefits. It is definitely something I would recommend. If you're not sure you can balance on rocks, then just follow the established paths and pathways that are neared to forest.

SO, BEACH KAMENJARA IS GORGEOUS. ARE YOU INTERESTED IN LEARNING MORE ABOUT ISLAND HVAR? IF YES,  YOU CAN READ MORE ABOUT ISLAND HVAR BY CLICKING ON ONE OF MY PREVIOUS POSTS.

HOW TO GET TO KAMENJARA BEACH AND WIND CENTER BOTA?
Getting there is quite easy. You can walk, cycle or drive there from Vrboska. Beach Kamenjara (like beach Soline) is located on peninsula that encloses Vrboska village. When you park near restaurant Soline (closed during the colder months), you will be able to see Soline beach. To find beach Kamenjara and wind surf center Bota all you need to do is follow the path in the opposite directions and you'll reach this place in less than two minutes on foot. There is also a nudist camp in vicinity. There is a wall separating the naturalist beach from this one (you can see in on the photograph). The naturalist beach is, I believe, open to visitors that aren't guests of the park. Do bring plenty of sunscreen if you plan to visit the naturalist beach because from what I've seen there isn't a lot of natural shade there. There is definitely more shade on the other beaches in the vicinity.  


 THE STORY OF MY OUTFIT &  HOW I WORE IT BEFORE?
Everything in this outfit is quite old. I wanted to wear something comfortable but chic so I opted for a simple combo consisting of a neutral tight dress, a brown faux fur and leather coat, a pair of dad sneakers and a pair of printed tights. When your outfit is quite simple, then accessories can help. A pair of printed  tights can always add something to the most basic of looks. Moreover, statement and printed tights are quite in at the moment. 
THE GREY DRESS
I bought this dress a year or two ago in New Yorker. It is a cotton blend dress that has really come in handy on a number of occasions. This grey dress is so comfortable to wear and quite easy to style. I often wear it to work. You can see how I wore it in the past here, here, here and here.
THE BROWN FAUX FUR AND LEATHER COAT
I already showed you eight ways to wear this coat here. I also wore it here.
THE STATEMENT TIGHTS
I don't remember where this printed pair of tights is from, but I think I had it for five years. You can see how I wore this pair of tights here, here and here
DAD SNEAKERS
You can see how I wore them here, here, here , here and here.
How do you like beach Kamenjara? Isn't it absolutely dreamy? Have a great day ahead!

  3. Wow, the water is crystal clear! What a beautiful spot! I love rocky beaches (as I noted in my comment on a previous post, this looks a lot like the waterfront terrain in my part of the world), and love clambering over rocks.

    Great outfit - I love a simple knit dress like this. They are so versatile! I'm happy to know that printed/statement tights are a thing again - I've never stopped wearing them, so it was inevitable that fashion would catch up with me, ha ha! I laughed at "Dad shoes" - they really are! I don't know if I'll ever be on board for that trend, though!

    1. I bought these sneakers before the trend exploded about 8 years ago. I planned to wear them only for jogging but seeing they are so comfy, I decided to wear them more often.
      I always loved fun tights so I'm definitely happy to see them trending. It will make it easier for us to find nice new ones.

  18. What a beautiful spot! It must be heaven to sunbathe there and go skinny dipping into that crystal clear Adriatic sea. I so much prefer a rocky beach, with a backdrop of rocks, than a flat sandy one. Your fluid but figure hugging dress sets off your beautiful figure magnificently, and I'm loving the addition of the statement tights! Wishing you a wonderful weekend ahead Ivana, and if you can spare some of that brilliant sunshine, do send some over! xxx

  20. Love that last pic at the end! The water is so beautiful even if the rocks would make it tricky to enjoy right at the edge! Does look so inviting! :) That grey dress looks great on you too.

  21. This beach is really a dream and yes, I'm also sure you need a lot of sunscreen when you are there for a sun bath! Thanks for sharing this wonderful spot and the dress you bought at New Yorker is beautiful and definitely very versatile. I like it how you have styled it here.

  27. Dvoumila sam se da li da ti napišem komentar na hrvatskom ili engleskom. U engleskom nisam baš bajna, pa je ovako lakše. O Hvaru sam čula predivne priče i komentare. Nisam nikada bila, ali po tvojim slikama vidim da su priče koje sam čula istinite. Iskreno se nadam da ću ga uskoro imati priliku posjetiti. Haljina ti odlično stoji, a post je stvarno divan. :)

    Savršen nered

    1. Meni je svejedno, nekad sam sve objave pisala i na hrvatskom, ali oduzimalo mi je previše vremena, a nemam puno čitatelja iz Hrvatske pa sam odustala. Planiram opet pisati i na hrvatskom.

All your comments mean a lot to me, even the criticism. Naravno da mi puno znači što ste uzeli vrijeme da nešto napišete, pa makar to bila i kritika. Per me le vostre parole sono sempre preziose anche quando si tratta di critiche.
