Žuljana, Coastal settlement on Peljesac Peninsula, Croatia.
Zuljana is a small coastal settlement on Peljesac Peninsula where a sheltered bay meets forested hillsides. The village comprises a handful of houses, local shops, and restaurants gathered around the waterfront.
The settlement traces back to the 12th century, when it was named after the Church of Saint Julian built at that time. This medieval structure anchored the community from its earliest days.
The settlement maintains age-old fishing traditions and wine production that shape daily life here. You can encounter locals engaged in these crafts, which form the backbone of the community's identity.
The village offers basic amenities including restaurants, local shops, and private lodging scattered throughout the area. Summer months are ideal for visiting, as diving operations run seasonally and most services are fully open.
The waters surrounding the village contain underwater caves and diverse marine life that draw divers from nearby regions. These underwater features have made it a well-known diving destination along the Adriatic coast.
