A new bridge that connects the new town of Pag with Prosika replaced the early 20th century concrete bridge. The bridge is a somewhat altered replica of an old Venetian bridge built in 1737 based on the design by renowned Venetian architect Giambattista Lodoli.
The construction of Pag’s Benedictine Convent of St. Margaret began right after the new town of Pag was established, as a memorial to the former church and convent in the Old Town.
Construction of the Church of St. George, the patron of both the town and the island of Pag, began prior to 1465 and continued until the late 15th century.
Andreja Boat Tours was established in 2012, and since then many satisfied guests have had the opportunity to explore the hidden beauties of Pag’s numerous coves, beaches and caves that can most often only be reached by sea. The boat can admit 12 passengers, and private excursions can be organized for smaller parties. At an average speed of 12 nm, most sites can be reached within 15 minutes.
The territory of northern Velebit was proclaimed a national park in 1999 due to the exceptional diversity of its karst phenomena, its rich biology and exceptional natural beauty on relatively small surface of 109 km2.
