Povljana – Island of Pag

[rev_slider alias=”slider-1″]

Where stone meets the sea

Povljana is a small, beautiful place situated on the western coast of one of the most popular Croatian islands, the island of Pag. It is an ideal place for families, especially with children, to spend a holiday there and to enjoy the various beaches such as the Mali Dubrovnik, Veliki Dubrovnik, Perilo, Stara Povljana, Zminka etc. Each of these beaches offers its own charms, such as the sandy Perilo coastline (just like in movies) or long sandy shallows of Veliki Dubrovnik suitable for children and various water sports. The center of Povljana itself is located above the beach and coast and offers all necessary shops and offices such as supermarkets, markets, fish market, pharmacy, post office and the tourist board. Furthermore, summer months in Povljana are always rich in cultural and entertaining events, concert of ”klapa” (traditional dalmatian a capella singing) , various music performers and local festivals that often last long into the night.

By the stroll along the long promenade of the Veliki Dubrovnik, via the lanterns (which is ”a must” for a perfect sunset photo), you will find the best of Povljana’s beauty and if you continue walking towards the center, you will run into hardworking domestic people who offer their own home-made products, such as well-known cheese from the island of Pag. Facilities for kids are  also very good. Trampolines, pedal boats, kayaks or aqua parks are only some of the many entertainments for our youngest guests.

The island of Pag is on the southern part of the coast connected to the bridge, which is free of charge, and also by the ferry line Prizna – Žigljen in the northeast. We recommend you to use the bridge when coming to Povljana.

The “Svijet mora” Apartments are situated in the first row to the sea, right next to the Little Dubrovnik beach. The biggest beach in Povljana, the Big Dubrovnik, and its many bars and restaurants, are only a 100 meters away. Furthermore, the closest supermarket can be found in the range of 500 meters. Every guest is provided with a parking space on the premises of the building, as well as with WiFi and air conditioning. The guest also have free access to bicycles to help run errands, such as grocery shopping, and to decrease the use of cars in the hot summer days.
