Papaya

Top choice in Pag Island


Rated one of the best clubs in the world (it came in at number six in DJ Mag's 2017 list), Papaya is the kingpin of the Zrće scene, complete with palm trees, waterfalls and a shell-like roof over the dance floor. On big nights it can cram 5000 people onto its terraces.
