Natural Feature
“Sveti Grgur, also known as Arta in middle-aged times is an uninhabited island in Croatia, on the Adriatic Sea between Rab and Krk. The island was the site of a women's prison in communist Yugoslavia from 1948 to 1988. The nearby island of Sveti Grgur attracts visitors with its coves surrounded by lush greenery, and a walk around the island will often lead you to people-friendly bucks, deer and other animals. Even today you can see the remains of the women’s penitentiary camp and some 50 bunkers in the karst landscape. The island is especially favourable for the development of hunting tourism.”
