Island Dugi Otok & Bozava Village

CAUTION: Any suggested itinerary or route and information provided are not substitute for pilot books and marine charts. We refuse to accept any responsibility for any loss or damage caused by holding on suggested routes or information provided.

Bozava  - is a small fishing village in the north-western part of the Dugi Otok Islands.  It has two shops, Post office, Travel Office, Ambulance station, police office and four restaurants.  Next to the village is a pine wood were the major hotel facility is hidden.  Crystal clear water is awaiting you here with numerous cliffed beaches.  On the other side of the island you can find a well visited natural sand beach.

Now, it is a small, calm port on the western cost of Dugi otok, situated close to the small Božava field. In the past, even at the time of the Illyrian tribes two fortified settlements existed near the village (the remains of walls), as well as the remains of the Roman buildings at the same villages. According to some findings, it seems that the Slaves set up the first settlement at pinat location as early as the 9th century.

Bozava was mentioned for the first time in written documents in 1327, under the name Bosana. It is also supposed that the parish church dates back from the 9th century, as well as the church of St Nicholas at the cemetery (IX / X century)

Near some houses alongside the costs it is still possible to see stonewalled yards that were used as defence against pirates.

Božava is the most developed tourist destination on the Island of Dugi otok.

Note that there are no facilities for cash withdrawal yet and only hotel allows you to pay by credit card.
