Pag Island is the longest island in Croatia. It is in the northern Adriatic. The island is a 3-hour drive from the Croatian capital, Zagreb, and 1 1/2-hour drive from Croatia's largest port, Rijeka, while just an hour's drive to the south is the closest major city in the central Adriatic, Zadar.The island can either be reached via a bridge from the south, or by the Prizna-Žigljen ferry that reaches it from the mainland in just 15 minutes. During the peak time of the tourist season there are up to four ferries constantly commuting between the mainland and Pag Island in order to avoid unnecessary traffic jams.
