A legendary island in Nin that hosts traditional pilgrimages to enjoy a unique spectacle.

If you are in the area at this time, you should not miss the traditional pilgrimage to the islet of Zečevo. Legend has it that in the 16th century the Virgin Mary appeared on the islete century, the Virgin Mary made an apparition on the islet. The Turks, who had just been defeated at Nin, set fire to the island's monastery and church. They killed all the monks and threw the statue of the Virgin into the sea. But Our Lady is said to have "swum" to the coast and appeared to a woman in 1516. Since then, every year, processions in boats are organized and it is a unique spectacle.
