Salt, stone and a quieter island

Eight months worth travelling for.

Outside the party calendar, Pag reads differently: dry-stone walls, aromatic herbs, sheep cheese, salt, bare limestone and the contrast with Velebit. Boškinac gives the north of the island a strong gastronomic anchor.

• October and spring: cooler temperatures make the stark landscape easier to explore on foot or by bike.
• Pag cheese, salt and local herbs give the island a distinctive food identity.
• North Pag becomes slower around Stara Novalja and Novaljsko Polje once the peak season ends.
