The establishment of the new town of Pag, where it stands today, happened in the year of 1443. Construction of the modern city is done by architectural and urban plan in which Juraj Dalmatinac, a famous renaissance architect and town planner, took part. To the town of Pag, King Bela IV granted Pag the Charter of the Royal Free City. Pag is known as a city of lace, cheese, lamb and salt. The island of Pag is a very long, over 60 km and very narrow - from 2 to 9.5 km. Coastal length is 270 km, which makes Pag one of the most indented island in Croatia. Its surface is 286.6 km2. The island of Pag is known as one of the sunniest islands in the Adriatic, with over 2500 hours of sunshine annually. The average annual temperature is 15 degrees Celsius. Each, even a small bay slopes gently toward the sea and has a sandy beach with fine, almost crystal sand. There are huge differences between the eastern and western parts of the island. The eastern part, facing the mainland, is an unintended, steep, rugged looks, tall and decorated with numerous reefs while the western part is much lower, greener and more pleasant. Characteristics and interesting facts of the island of Pag are many springs of drinking water, and there are numerous submarine springs. Water generally comes to the island under the sea floor from the slopes of Velebit. There are three freshwater swamp lakes on the island: Velo , Malo Blato and Kolansko Blato (Big Mud, Small Mud and Kolan Mud) . Although the climate of the island belongs with the Mediterranean, closeness to the Velebit influence the vegetation - eastern part of the island is, due to severe gale strikes and strong salty wind, barren, but despite this the island kept its native evergreen.

Do utemeljenja novog grada Paga, na mjestu gdje se danas nalazi, došlo je 1443 godine. Gradnja današnjeg grada izvodila se po arhitektonsko-urbanističkom planu u kojem je sudjelovao Juraj Dalmatinac, poznati urbanista i renesansni graditelj. Kralj Bela IV podario je Pagu povelju Slobodnog kraljevskog grada. Pag je poznat kao grad čipke, sira, janjetine i soli. Otok Pag dugačak je preko 60 km i vrlo uzak širine od 2 do 9,5 km. Dužina obale iznosi 270 km što Pag ubraja u najrazvedenije otoke u Hrvatskoj. Površina mu iznosi 286,6 km2. Otok Pag je poznat i kao jedan od najsunčanijih otoka na Jadranu s preko 2.500 sunčanih sati godišnje. Prosječna godišnja temperatura zraka je 15 stupnjeva Celzijevih. Svaka, pa i malena uvala blago se spušta prema moru i ima pješčane plaže s finim, kristalnim pijeskom.. Uočljive su velike razlike između istočnog i zapadnog dijela otoka. Istočni dio otoka, okrenut prema kopnu, je nerazveden, strm, surova izgleda, visok, ukrašen mnoštvom grebena dok je zapadni dio otoka znatno niži, zeleniji, pitomiji. Posebnost i zanimljivost otoka Paga su izvori pitke vode i brojne vrulje u moru. Voda na otok stiže uglavnom ispod morskog dna s Velebitskih padina. Na otoku se nalaze tri slatkovodna močvarna jezera: Veliko blato, Malo blato i Kolansko blato. Iako se klimatske prilike na otoku ubrajaju u mediteranske, blizina Velebita čini svoje, pa tako utječe na biljni pokrov otoka - istočni dio je zbog jakih udara bure i jake posolice sasvim gol, ali usprkos tome na otoku se zadržao autohtoni zimzelen .
