Spectacular place! You can stop a car on a free, gravel parking lot here and it is surely worth to do so as the landscspe is just magnificent! You get surrounded by astonishing beauty of the nature - all shades of blue water and the sky with mountains and hills just in between of them... I was so very happy that there is no big, paved parking lot with 3 different restaurants and public toilets. That makes this place at least a bit intimate despite main road passing nearby. Impressive, simple bridge is just a perfect "crown" that human put on a beautiful head of the nature.

Razpon loka je 193 metrov. Most je zelo izpostavljen burji, med izgradnjo pa je moral štiri mesece vzdržati vetrove stopnje 8 po Beaufortovi lestvici. V nevihti spomladi leta 2019 je bila zabeležena hitrost vetra 198 kilometrov na uro.

Highly recommend if you are going to pag/ that area. Stopping on the lay by at the side of the road to take a look and get some photos. Is an area where you can walk down and get a better view of the bridge but also at the top is gorgeous

Amazing location to watch the sunset. We went multiple days in the 1st week of september. It gets very windy but worth the hassle. Parking was always available and there's a small fastfood/drink place next to the parking space.

As we didn't calculate well the time to see the sunset on the sea -we stopped and got some beer on our way back from Pag at the small bar with a view on the bridge. It was really romantic and the colours were amazing.
