According to Travel Tomorrow, the Croatian island of Hvar plans to enforce noise limits, dress codes, and additional tourist regulations to address antisocial behaviour among visitors. These new rules will come into effect this summer, affecting holidaymakers. Despite concerns from local businesses about the potential financial impact, local authorities are committed to these changes, aiming to foster a family-friendly and sustainable tourism environment.
