A small village nestled in a quiet natural cove, right next to Vlašići. Those seeking peace and quiet, a clean sea, pristine beaches, and kindly hosts will find an ideal vacation spot here. The village, actually a row of family homes, stands above a long, distinctive beach.
Sveti Vid (St. Vitus) is the highest peak on the island of Pag, 348 m above sea level. The small Church of St. Vitus was built there in the 14th century.
The town of Pag already had one of the first sundials in Europe at the end of the 19th century. The marker for meridian 15 is roughly 5 km from Pag, on a macadam road, in a tract named after St. Mary Magdalene, with a marble marker set along the intersecting line.
