Gajac: Gajac Beach

About location

Tucked along the Adriatic coast of Pag Island, Gajac Beach is a place whose character is shaped by its gently shelving shore beside the settlement of Gajac. This low-lying stretch near Novalja belongs to the northern part of one of Croatia’s most distinctive islands, where pale limestone terrain and sparse Mediterranean vegetation shape much of the coast. The beach combines a pebble shoreline, shallow water close to land and a compact resort setting rather than an isolated shore. Pag is widely associated with Paški sir, the island’s sheep’s-milk cheese, made from the milk of local sheep. Nearby Zrće has brought nightlife to this corner of Pag, while Gajac retains a more residential coastal character.

Country Croatia

Croatia occupies a long Adriatic coastline in southeastern Europe. Its shore is broken into islands and sheltered coves, while the Dinaric Alps rise inland and the Danube forms part of its eastern border. Dubrovnik’s fortified old city faces the sea, and Split grew around Diocletian’s Palace, a Roman complex begun in the early fourth century. Inland, Plitvice Lakes National Park is known for terraced lakes linked by waterfalls and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979. Istrian olive groves, Zagreb and Slavonia’s vineyards reveal distinct regional identities.
