Remains of an Ancient Landing Place, Neviđane

Near Cape St Michael and the local cemetery in Neviđane on the island of Pašman, in Zadar County, the remains of an ancient landing place rest beneath the sea. It is interesting to divers and lovers of antiquity because it shows how navigation and trade shaped this part of the Adriatic from the 1st to the 4th century.

The landing place lies at a depth between 3.5 and 5 metres. Its line first runs perpendicular to the shore, then curves semicircularly towards the south. Northwest of it the remains of a breakwater have survived, about 120 metres long and 4.5 metres wide, made of large stone blocks. Fragments of pottery were found around the landing place.

A protected cultural property, entered in the Register of Cultural Goods of the Republic of Croatia under the code Z-27.
