Overview
The Hvar Lavender Fields, largely concentrated around the charming village of Brusje, offer a sensory escape into the heart of Hvar's fragrant history. Once responsible for 8% of the world's lavender production, the island, nicknamed the 'island of lavender', still retains its aromatic allure. While fires have reduced the extent of the fields, the remaining lavender offers a beautiful sight and scent, especially from late May to mid-July, with late June being the prime viewing time.Founded as a shepherd settlement in the 16th century, Brusje is now dedicated to lavender and rosemary etheric oils. A visit during the blooming season immerses you in vibrant purple hues and intoxicating fragrances. Even after the harvest, the landscape and lavender products retain their charm.Visitors can explore the fields, learn about lavender cultivation, and purchase local products like oils and soaps. The nearby village of Velo Grablje, also known for lavender production, hosts the annual Lavender Festival in late June or early July, featuring workshops, local products, and cultural events. Panoramic views from Brusje showcase the island's terraces, the mainland, and nearby islands.
