Other Tourist Scams in Hvar

Overpriced Club Entry and Bottle Service Pressure

Nightclubs in Hvar Town, particularly Carpe Diem and venues on the Riva promenade, use entry fees that vary dramatically based on apparent wealth and the season, with tourists sometimes quoted 50-100 EUR for entry that locals pay nothing for, and table minimum spends that are not disclosed until after entry. Bottle service minimums at high-end venues can exceed 500 EUR and are presented as the only seating option available.
