Admire the town beach, characterized by red pebbles, and the Lučice cove, surrounded by pine forests and turquoise waters. Discover small coves that can only be accessed by boat.

As you sail, learn about the significance of this protected area. Discover how Posidonia oceanica, a Mediterranean endemic plant known as the "lungs of the Mediterranean," plays a crucial role in maintaining the marine ecosystem.

See the rare fish species Coris julis, which symbolizes Katič Nature Park. Interestingly, this fish naturally transitions from female to male—a unique biological feature of this species.

Just a kilometre off the coast of Petrovac, see the enchanting islands of Sveta Nedelja and Katič. Katič is primarily reserved for various bird species and the individual who maintains the lighthouse, while visits to the island of Sveta Nedelja are permitted.

According to local legends, this island served as a refuge for sailors who survived shipwrecks. Their gratitude led to the construction of a small church, which stands as a symbol of protection and hope. Climb the stairs to the church for a unique view of nearly the entire Katič Nature Park—a perfect spot for moments of peace and admiration of the breathtaking natural beauty.

Among these natural wonders is the Cave of Wishes, located between the Public Beach and Lučice Bay. This unique natural formation, visible only from the sea, resembles the symbol of infinity when viewed from afar. According to local legend, if you make a wish inside the cave, the sea might grant it. It is a place that attracts couples in love, photographers, and anyone who believes in the magic of nature.

While exploring Katič Nature Park, make sure to set aside some time to relax on the beach or take a stroll along the coastal trail. This trail winds through a forest of Aleppo pine, lush spurge vegetation, and other characteristic Mediterranean plants. It is about one kilometre long and suitable for walkers of all ages, from the youngest to the oldest.
