For the better part of the 20^th century, Vis was a Yugoslav military base, remaining as such, out of reach to the general public. This shield did wonders to preserve its nature and beauty for the present day. The allure of Vis are its two towns, sailors’ Vis and fishermen’s Komiža, but even more so, the many uncharted, untamed sites where you drop the anchor, swim ashore and feel like on a private island.

Overflowing with traces from prehistory, the site was subsequently dated 3.500 years back to the times when the Illyrian tribe Liburnians inhabited the area.

Standing grand and commanding on the northwestern tip of Dugi Otok, Veli Rat lighthouse is the tallest lighthouse on the Croatian coast. At its 42 meters, it is nearly as tall as Arc de Triomphe. Built in the mid-19^th century, it is also the yellowest lighthouse of the era. As oral traditions tell - that is due to over 100.000 egg yolks used in its construction! The small romantic chapel next door bears the name of the patron saint of sailors, St. Nicholas.
