Lun is a village on the very northern tip of the island of Pag in Croatia. Pag seems to have an almost lunar landscape, but then all of a sudden one finds oneself in the middle of a vast olive orchard, with thousands of ancient olive trees, including one, which is claimed to be 2000 years old and another one that is supposed to be 1600 years old. The population lives mainly from tourist activities in the summer months, such as B&B and restaurants. But there is also fishery and besides the olives, sheep are kept on the island and grapes are grown, of which a white wine, the Žutica, is pressed.
