Highlights

## Start here if you only do six things.

Walk-to beach

### Beach Planjka Trinćel

If you are into crowdy places, this the place for you. A very nice sandy beach with few bars and various attractions.

Only 850m from the apartment.

**Tip:** Don't walk to it on the road. Take the beach route, it is nicer.

850 m [Directions](https://www.google.com/maps/dir/?api=1&destination=44.5709831,14.8876072)

Hidden gem

### Beach Jadra

This beach is a hidden gem, with its beautiful crystal-clear sea and lovely sea entrances. Parking is 5€/day until 16:00, and 2.5€ after 16:00.

**Tip:** parking may be free after 17:00.

10 min by car [Directions](https://www.google.com/maps/dir/?api=1&destination=44.6082059,14.8747275)

Walk-to dinner

### Konoba Toni

5 min walk [Directions](https://www.google.com/maps/dir/?api=1&destination=44.5732062,14.8903466)

Beach-walk bar

### Beach bar KESA

This is a lovely beach bar, a few minutes of walking from the apartment, to the right side. The best way to get it is to take a 12 min. walk along the beach. It is possible to get here by car as well, however there are no good parking options here.

12 min walk [Directions](https://www.google.com/maps/dir/?api=1&destination=44.5834886,14.884342)

Best pizza

### D10's Pizza Fantasista - Pag

Signature sight

Apt. Romana

Very nice hosts — they greeted us every day with a smile and were so accommodating with all our questions. The apartment is near the beach, in a quiet part of town. We used the kitchen and terrace a lot for our meals. Everything was in perfect order. Thank you.

A wonderful holiday has come to an end! It was a beautiful stay with such attentive hosts (Miroslav and family) who always had an ear for us, no matter what we asked. He even handled the communication for us when booking a trial dive for my granddaughter. As helpful as anyone could hope for. If we ever come back to Croatia, we already know where we'll be staying 😉 Happy to come back any time — we really enjoyed our time here. Thank you for the lovely stay 🙏
