The town is located on the coast, next to a small harbour and a pebble beach, and is surrounded by agriculture, including many vineyards. The cobbled-street town also has a town square, which is home to many good cafes, restaurants, and ice cream shops, many which offer free Wi-Fi. Stari Grad is a great place to base yourself to explore the rest of the island; Hvar Town is only fifteen kilometers away and Jelsa is only nine kilometers away. There are also many hiking and bike trails nearby.

There are a number of accommodation options available in Stari Grad, including many cheap guesthouses, most with a view of the small harbour, hotels and of course Stari Grad hostels. There is also a campground in the town, however it is worth checking before arriving as the campground closes in the low season (October through May).

Hostels in Stari Grad are a great budget option, especially if you are traveling solo. Most Stari Grad hostels do not include breakfast, however they do include free Wi-Fi and linen and towels, and usually have a communal kitchen and information about activities on the island. Most Stari Grad hostel staff speak good English, however a few words of Croatian are always appreciated. If you are traveling as a couple, sometimes a double room in a guesthouse is cheaper than a dorm room in a Stari Grad hostel.
