Pag

Pag, an island of rock, salt and cheese, has the Adriatic's longest coastline. The east belongs to the bura; the west has Šimuni marina and a string of quiet bays.

Pag runs parallel to Velebit, from which it is separated by the Velebit Channel. Bura has stripped the east side of the island down to bare rock, so the landscape looks like the surface of the moon. The town of Pag lies at the head of the long Pag Bay, and Novalja is in the north-west, by the well-known Zrće beach.

Pag Bay and the Velebit Channel are among the windiest parts of the Adriatic, and you do not enter them in bura. The west coast, from Šimuni to Novalja and Lun, is more sheltered and better equipped. In the south the island is joined to the mainland by the Pag Bridge, under which even sailboats with a tall mast can pass.

For boaters

ACI marina Šimuni, the small harbours of Novalja, Mandre and Košljun on the west coast, Pag harbour in Pag Bay (in settled weather only).
