Zadar is a beautiful and historic city just around 75 km away from Novalja. There are so many things to see in this ancient Mediterranean port city. The old town is surrounded by a wall, and there is a lot of ancient architecture. You can learn more about the history by taking a tour or visit a museum. There is also a lot of great restaurants there (for instance: 4 Kantuna, Restaurant Bruschetta). Zadar is definitely a must-see while visiting this part of Croatia and it makes a great one day trip from island Pag.

Sightseeing

I recommend visiting a small village called Lun and seeing its beautiful garden of olive trees that are over 1000 years old. You can also learn more about the production of olive oil and take a tour through the botanical garden. For more information, check their website. Also, after visiting Lun's Olive Garden, I would recommend going to beautiful nearby beach Plaža Krušvina.

If you would like a nice one day trip, you should take a boat tour to island Rab. You can also only decide to spend the evening in the Rab and get dinner and walk around the beautiful island Rab. There are daily boat rides during summer between Tovarnele (Pag) and island Rab.

Beaches

Beach Krcalo is only a short walk (about 10 min) away from Villa Harmony. It is a beautiful pristine natural beach. There are blue arrows showing the way to the beach. The beach is not very easy accessible so I recommend wearing sandals or shoes to get there.

Beautiful pristine natural beach with clear blue water and some natural shadow. Just a short walk away from Villa Harmony (about 15 minutes). There are red arrows marking the way to Slatina beach. Just a warning - the water is very clean so there are sea urchins on the rocks in the water in certain area, therefore, be careful and/or wear sandals.

This is one of the best and most beautiful beaches on island Pag. It is a bit more challenging to access it, as it required some hiking: you can park your car by the St. Jerome's Church in Lun and then go on a 10-15 min walk through a beautiful pine tree forest until you get to the beach.

旅行者へのアドバイス

節約術

Avoid ATMs - they charge a very high fee.

Instead of using ATM, go to a bank or post office.
交通アクセス

The best way to get around the island is by car.

Arriving by car will give you the most freedom to explore the island Pag. Renting a scooter could also be a great option or also you can use a bike to get around the island (or at least closer locations). Also, be aware - taxi drivers can charge quite high prices especially at night for transfers to and from Zrce. I would recommend checking online at different taxi companies and ask about the price in advance.
