Grad Komiža

Town of Komiza

Welcome to Komiža! Komiža is a fishing town located in a bay on the western coast of Vis, at the foot of Mount Hum. Stone houses and narrow streets bear witness to the life that has been going on here for over a thousand years. Since the 12th century, Komiža has been home to the bravest fishermen of the Adriatic. Local fishermen created the "falkuša" - a special wooden boat for sailing to the distant island of Palagruža. These week-long expeditions have shaped the identity of the town and become a symbol of Komiža's courage. The waterfront is dominated by the 16th-century Komuna fortress, today the Fisherman's Museum. There you can see original tools and learn more about the life of Komiža fishermen who faced the challenges of the sea for generations. The gastronomy of Komiža deserves your attention. Komiža's bread with onions and sardines is a perfect match with the local Plavac Mali wine. For lovers of natural phenomena, the Blue Cave on Biševo is a must-see because when sunlight penetrates through an underwater opening, the cave is bathed in a breathtaking blue light. Throughout history, Komiža has been the scene of pirate tales, Venetian rule and the fight for freedom. Here, every cove hides a legend worth discovering. Welcome to Komiža - a place where the sea tells stories and time flows at a different pace.
