SUPETARSKA DRAGA
 

SUPETARSKA DRAGA 2
  Gornja  S.Draga - the mill


St. Peter

 
SUPETARSKA DRAGA continues on the Mundanije valley and embraces the bay. It is divided on Upper and Lower Draga ( "draga" here meaning the bay -- for those of you linguist lovers: draga also means 'darling').
Locals in S. Draga have always been turned to sea more than the others on the island. Many are sailors. It is no wonder that the ACI Marina and crane settled right there in the sheltered bay which is also known as a nesting place and  winter home for migrant birds. Boaters like it a lot as they can quickly reach little uninhabited islets maman, Srednjak and Sailovac, while other tourists spend their holidays in numerous pensions and apartments.

ST. PETER'S CHURCH
This 3 nave basilica is the oldest benedictine church on Rab, built in 1059. in a clean romanesque style next to the benedictine monastery ( it does not exist any more). This monastery was founded by rab Bishop Drago and got confirmed its' possesions by croatian King Petar Kresimir IV in 1071.  St. Peters' is one of the best preserved romanesque churches in their original shape on the eastern coast of Adriatic and attracts many religious people as well as art and architecture lovers.
