Katič and Sveta Neđelja islets

Islets off the Petrovac coast

Katič and Sveta Neđelja are islets easily recognised from the Petrovac waterfront and are part of Katič Nature Park. The protected area links marine habitats and cultural sites, including the Church of Sveta Neđelja.

View from the shore

You can watch the islets from the town promenade, the beach and the area by the harbour. This is a simple way to include them in your stay without going out to sea.

Going out to sea

Arrange a boat or kayak trip with a specific organiser. Check the route, conditions on the water and whether any landing is permitted; seeing the chapel does not confirm that entry or going ashore is possible.

Protected nature

Do not treat the park as an open area for anchoring, collecting or other activities. For specific activities, use information from the area's managing authority; this guide does not repeat unconfirmed rules or old fees.

Kastio and Lazaret

Kastio and Lazaret mark part of the Petrovac waterfront by the harbour. In the 16th century the Venetians built a fortress with a garrison and storehouses, while the neighbouring Lazaret served for quarantine. The name Kastel Lastva has remained part of the place's story.

Roman mosaics at Mirišta

The Roman mosaics at Mirišta bear witness to late antique Petrovac. According to the museum institution, a fragment depicting three fish with a shared head, discovered in 1902, has not survived. A larger mosaic discovered in 1941 is divided into twelve panels with geometric and plant motifs; the museum tentatively dates it to the mid-4th century and links it to the beginnings of early Christian art.
