The island of Šćedro lies just over 1.5 sea miles south of Hvar. Its name means “delightful” in old Slavonic. It was the island’s appeal that prompted the Dominicans to found a monastery here at Mostir Bay. However, following pirate attacks and an earthquake, it has lain abandoned since the 18th century. The larger Lovišće Bay, also situated on the north side of the island, is a very popular anchorage ground. Due to its extreme proximity to Hvar island strong thermal winds are sometimes experienced at night and the seabed is also not optimal for anchoring. A shoreline should always be used.
