A list of Croatia's licensed tour guides for the town and island of Pag (Zadar County).
Pag’s Old Town is located a kilometre south of today’s town core. What used to be a large and rich town is today is an archaeological site and shrine. The Romanesque Church of St. Mary with a statue of the Mother of God has been preserved along with the remains of a Franciscan monastery.
The territory of northern Velebit was proclaimed a national park in 1999 due to the exceptional diversity of its karst phenomena, its rich biology and exceptional natural beauty on relatively small surface of 109 km2.
Kamerlengo Tower no longer stands in its original form. The former tower today houses the town government, while during the summer months the Town Hall serves as an exhibition space for various artists.
Until the mid-19th century, the town of Pag was encircled by sizeable and lovely walls with defence towers. Pag had several town gates, and the largest was in the Katine section, called the Porta Marina. Only the lintel of Rector Nikola Tiepolo remains preserved from this gate. The Minor Gate was a little farther south.
A fishing village 15 minutes from Pag by car. A true oasis with a pristine, clear sea and a range of family homes and vacation houses to let. Miškovići offers a quiet vacation and lovely beaches suited for children. As for specialties: you can enjoy Pag’s lamb, the island’s renowned cheese and Pag’s famed Žutica wine.
