About Povljana

Traditionally, place was an agricultural area that for centuries supplied food to majority of people on the island. In addition to agriculture, the population has earned their living from fishery and cattle breeding. Great changes occurred in the middle of the 20th century, when tourism started to develop in place. First records of a great tourist wave dates back to 1954. Hunting tourism developed in Povljana first. Today evidence supporting this theory can be found in the remains of a house in the territory of Veliko blato. This house belonged to the family Košćina, and this Pag nobility invited hunters from across Europe. What was once a rural land now became a developed municipal centre, reflecting the efforts of the population investing in Povljana and striving to further affirm it as a distinguished tourist destination.
