Smokvica is a small, traditional village on the island of Pag, situated in a sheltered cove on the island's western coast. Its name means 'fig tree' in Croatian, reflecting the rural character. The village is known for its well-preserved stone houses, narrow streets, and a pebble beach with crystal-clear water. Visitors can swim in the calm bay, explore the nearby coves accessible by foot or boat, and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere away from Pag's more touristy spots. The surrounding landscape is typical of Pag: rocky, sparse, and windswept, with olive groves and dry-stone walls.
