Povile

Povile extends along a stretch of the Croatian coastline with Mediterranean white buildings, situated between green hills and clear waters of the Adriatic Sea.

The settlement formed part of the medieval territories controlled by the Frankopan family, who established their influence throughout the Vinodol region during the 13th century.

Local residents maintain traditional Croatian coastal customs, including maritime activities and the preparation of regional Adriatic dishes with fresh caught fish.

The settlement contains a mixture of traditional houses and modern apartments, connected to other coastal towns through a network of local roads.

With only 220 residents recorded in the 2021 census, Povile maintains the character of a small Mediterranean coastal community spread across 2.9 square kilometers.
