About Komiža
Komiza is an ancient fishing port facing the sea and sparkling in the sun.
If you are looking for peace and tranquillity you will find it enjoying in it’s authentic architecture, joined with rosemary, fish and exclusive wine odours.
Outdoor enthusiasts are offered various sports and recreation opportunities like paragliding, horse riding, trekking and playing tennis.
Komiža has long fishing tradition which is reflected in the appearance of this small town and in the warmth of the local people. It is situated at the foot of the hill Hum (587 m) and oriented in West-Southwest direction.
