Stara Novalja

STARA NOVALJA, a village in the cove of the same name in the north-eastern part of the island of Pag, 5 km north of Novalja. Economy is based on farming, viniculture, fishing and tourism. The cove of Stara Novalja is the submerged part of the Pasko-Dinjiska valley. The safest dock for larger ships is located south of the cove called -Drljanda, where the depth reaches 27-38 m. Smaller ships and yachts drawing up to 3.5 m are docked along the external part of the jointed pier (in front of the village). Stara Novalja is located on the road (M29). In its vicinity are remains of antique walls, a late antique necropolis, ruins of the pre-Romanesque church of the Holy Cross. Since the ferry harbour was relocated to Zigljen (except in some extraordinary weather conditions), Stara Novalja has become a quiet place which offers accommodation facilities in private homes, as well as lodging and boarding services. Stara Novalja as such it is preferred by families. The major event in Stara Novalja is the feast day of Sts. Peter and Paul (29th of June).
