About Carpe Diem Beach
Carpe Diem Beach is a beach club on Marinkovac in the Pakleni Islands, a ten minute boat ride from Hvar town, spread over two beaches on Stipanska bay. It belongs to the same group as Carpe Diem Bar on the Hvar town waterfront, which has been open since 1998. By day the club offers cabanas, sunbeds, a sea swing, a pool and a restaurant with Mediterranean food, sushi and pizza. From early June to mid-September its open-air Terranza after-beach runs daily from 4pm to midnight with free entry. The club has also run late-night open-air parties and hosted ULTRA Beach and RESISTANCE Hvar during Ultra Europe, but it says the future of its night programme depends on decisions by the local government.
