Zdrilca Beach

There are many islands near Hvar and we took a boat taxi to Zdrilca today (yes, that's how it's spelled!). We had a great view of Hvar harbour, the town, and the castle beyond as we motored out from the pier.


The water was crystal clear and we could see our shadows on the bottom as we swam out to a tiny island nearby to explore the strange rock formations. We all had sandals and water shoes on because of the rocky and pebbly beach.



We had forgotten to take our books along, so we spent more time playing in the water under the hot sun. Christina and I got a little sunburnt inspite of the sunscreen, but it's okay. We borrowed a beach ball from an Australian couple and played monkey in the middle for a while. We also tried to stack rocks as high as we could. Lots of fun.

We took the boat taxi back to town aroun 4 o'clock and made a bee line to the ice cream shop! It was a great day sunning and playing at the beach.
