PiNCAMP interview with the campsite manager
Exclusive information you won't find anywhere else.
1- How would you describe the atmosphere at your campsite in the morning, in the afternoon and in the evening?
Mornings begin slowly: breakfast on the terrace, calm turquoise sea, rising sun and the Pag archipelago waking up around you. Afternoons are yours – swimming, sailing, diving, sports, wellness, great food or simply reading your favourite book. Evenings bring live music, theatre, shows, beach cinema, fireworks, sunset cocktails or a quiet walk by the sea. You choose.
2- Introduce yourself!
We are a place where freedom meets quality, and nature meets imagination. We believe a holiday should make you feel more alive, not more scheduled. We keep improving, but never at the cost of our soul. We protect what is wild, create what is unexpected and leave room for people to simply be themselves. That is Šimuni: authentic, open, playful and deeply connected to people and place.
3- Is there a local product guests take home as a souvenir?
Our guests often take a little piece of Pag home. We give guests fresh lavender as a small souvenir, while local favourites include Pag salt, olive oil, Pag cheese and traditional cured meats. The island is home to some of Croatia’s most renowned cheesemakers, so there are plenty of delicious ways to keep the memory of your holiday alive.
4- Is there anything else you want to tell us?
We believe development only makes sense when it respects the place it develops. That is why we invest in new experiences, technology (Šimuni mobile app), infrastructure and high-quality accommodation while protecting the landscape, natural resources and character of the campsite. We do not want to build more simply for the sake of building more. We want every change to make Šimuni better without making it less Šimuni.
5- Is there a place where children make new friends especially easily?
Absolutely! Teenagers often meet on the multifunctional sports court, in the Adventure Park, on the beach volleyball courts, in the Gaming Room, through our 7-day Sports Camps and through our sports and entertainment activities. Younger children connect in the Šimi Kids Club, during creative workshops and games, while the evening Mini Disco is a favourite place to dance, laugh and make new friends from all over Europe.
6- Is there a situation where you repeatedly realize: "this is exactly why we do what we do"?
It happens when we see guests truly let go. Children run barefoot, parents relax, neighbours become friends, and a family talks about returning before their holiday is over. Despite all our investment and high standards, we have protected something precious: the real camping feeling. We follow nature and people, not a fixed formula. That freedom, happiness and sense of community is our greatest reward.
7- Is there a story of the campsites history you enjoy telling your guests?
Šimuni has been here since the late 1980s, but one part of its history still shapes us today. When the campsite was built, its founders used stone from the land and built much of it by hand, inspired by Pag’s traditional dry-stone walls – now UNESCO-protected heritage. They followed the landscape instead of straightening it. Decades later, those imperfect lines have become part of our identity.
8- What is the most spectacular accommodation you have on your site?
Our pitches are unique – shaped by nature, not a standard layout. The most sought-after are our seafront pitches in the Adriatic Blue zone, where waves can wake you and pine trees bring natural shade. For a little luxury, our private pool mobile homes offer huge terraces, stunning views of the Pag archipelago and your own little paradise by the sea.
9- What is typical of your campsite, but difficult to explain on photos?
The feeling. It is difficult to photograph the moment when you suddenly feel completely free, relaxed and alive. When everyday worries disappear, children run barefoot, strangers become friends and families reconnect. Šimuni is more than a beautiful place to stay – it changes the way you experience your holiday. And somehow, that feeling follows you home.
10- What makes your site different and stand out from other campsites nearby?
We have never tried to make Šimuni look like a standard resort. We are a real campsite – shaped by nature, people and the land itself. High-quality accommodation and experiences live alongside pine trees, natural beaches, pets, sports and great food. Six beaches, underwater archaeology and sunken boats are part of the story. But the real difference is the feeling: freedom without losing comfort.
11- What should guests not miss—even if it’s not mentioned in any travel guide?
Don’t miss a sunset cocktail by the sea, morning coffee on your terrace, our traditional beach barbecue, a boat trip around the Pag archipelago or exploring the underwater world of Šimuni. Try Pag cheese and lamb, watch the Milky Way, listen to the cicadas, sleep in a hammock beneath the pines – and leave time for doing something you never did.
12- Which encounter between guests has stayed particularly memorable for you?
Two families arrived with their campervans as complete strangers and got neighbouring pitches. Before unpacking, they introduced themselves, opened a bottle of champagne, turned towards the sea and toasted to being here – in such a beautiful place, with such wonderful people next door. It was a perfect reminder of what camping can create: strangers becoming neighbours, and neighbours becoming friends.
13- Which regional food or drink should guests absolutely try?
Start with the classics: Pag lamb, world-famous Pag cheese, local cured meats, seafood and Adriatic fish, olive oil and traditional baškotin. And don’t leave without trying our homemade ice cream, made in our own pastry shop in more than 20 flavours. Our cuisine is rooted in local ingredients and traditions. In Šimuni, we serve Pag and Dalmatia on a plate.
14- Which spot on your campsite makes guests say “WOW”?
Our six beautiful beaches with crystal-clear turquoise water. Each beach has its own character, from lively family areas to quiet spots surrounded by nature. Guests can relax on free sunbeds and under free umbrellas while enjoying stunning Adriatic views. With seaside pitches, seafront mobile homes, natural pine shade and breathtaking sunsets, Camping Village Šimuni offers the feeling of having your own piece of coastline on the island of Pag.
15- Which story do children tell when they are back from holiday?
They come home with stories that sound like a whole summer in one week: new friends, running across the campsite, learning to sail or dive, exploring coves by SUP, playing football and volleyball, joining the summer carnival, battling with water balloons and spotting a seahorse. And usually one question follows: “Can we come back next year?”
16- Which strength of your campsite is often underestimated online?
Quality. Šimuni may look relaxed, natural and wonderfully unpolished, but behind that effortless feeling is a very high standard. We invest continuously in accommodation, gastronomy, sports, entertainment, service and infrastructure. We combine the freedom of real camping with the comfort, creativity and production standards of a modern destination. It feels effortless – but it is anything but accidental.

A beautifully landscaped site with amazing beaches. Exactly as it appears in the pictures! Even during the peak season, it's never overcrowded, so you can always find a free spot right by the beach with complimentary sun loungers. Diverse dining options, where you always get a table without any waiting. Great kids' entertainment (the entertainers also take care of the kids during bands and musicals in front of the stage). For dog lovers, it’s completely relaxed, with two beach areas designated for dogs. Dogs are allowed everywhere on the campsite.

The place is really very nice and we will definitely come back; perfect location by the water, great beach, etc... There are new and old wash houses that are all very clean and cleaned several times a day. Unfortunately, there are always people who leave the toilets in a state that is really very disgusting, but the place can do nothing about it. The old wash house should urgently be renovated.! At least 50% of the staff should work on their friendliness. But those are rather minor issues and complaining at a high level. Negative: In the supermarket and also at the fruit and vegetable store, very high prices, which is really a rip-off... Which is very unfortunate. The prices for jetskis and SUP are exorbitant. All in all, a very good and beautiful place. See you soon 👋👊

Space has become extremely expensive. Except for the upper sanitary building, all others are old and worn. We used to like being here, but there are also other places nearby. Too bad. Think about your prices!

A very beautiful campsite with easy access to the sea, featuring smooth pebbles. The sanitation facilities were always clean and were serviced several times a day. There is a good bus connection to the towns of Pag and Novalja. We stayed at the site for 5 days at the beginning of October. Unfortunately, some restaurants and shops had already closed by then. However, the price was unbeatable. We would come back again.

Great location. Some sanitary facilities are not in good condition. Shops are good, restaurants are plentiful, there's something for everyone. In the evenings, very loud entertainment, which bothered us a bit.

Ralf
Hello community, We have been here for just over a week on a Deluxe pitch in the 2nd row in the middle of the peninsula. I really thought for a long time about what to write here... I'll just start from the beginning: We arrived after a really terrible day at 21:00 here (reception and entrance open until 23:00). The lady at the reception spoke German but was not overly motivated. There is no towing service anymore, the last one was dragged in right in front of my eyes, now he's closing for the night! So we got a pitch number and were escorted with a golf cart. Upon arriving at the pitch, we and the surprised guide found that the pitch was already occupied! A short phone call from the guide to reception, then got a pitch on the other side of the road, same equipment but unfortunately much smaller and noisier because the animations are next to it. Unfortunately, there are no sun loungers and parasol, even though I am supposed to pay for them! Loungers were brought after multiple complaints. I'm still waiting for the parasol! We are situated in between 2 sanitary facilities, one has exactly 1 shower for men and women and the other is a construction container! So we took longer walks and tried the other sanitary facilities of the site, there are definitely some good and relatively new ones here. The beach is really nice and, in my opinion, saves the whole site a bit! Overall, the facility (including the sewage treatment plant!) is a bit outdated and unfortunately everything here is associated with additional costs! There are several restaurants, a kiosk with fresh fish, a baker, one with fruits and vegetables, and a well-stocked supermarket. There are also stands with the usual holiday and beach essentials. Conclusion: If a spot exceeds the €2000 mark for a family, I simply expect more! It was nice to have been here, but it doesn't need to happen again!

Overpriced

A.
We have been to the campsite a few times before, but this time we were very disappointed. The prices have risen enormously. Compared to previous years, at least 50% more. We booked a spot in Zone A, but ended up with a pitch at the end of the campsite. The sanitary building that was nearby was a container. It was dirty and cramped. The ventilation there also didn't work. You had to leave the doors open if you wanted to take a shower. The other sanitary facilities were all outdated and dirty. Cleaning was also not done regularly. You had to walk at least 15 minutes to reach the chemical toilet. Apparently, there was only one. This campsite is absolutely not (anymore) recommendable. It doesn’t deserve five stars.

More info about Camping Village Šimuni
Camping Village Šimuni impresses with a long sandy beach in the immediate vicinity, which is ideal for sunbathing and swimming in the Mediterranean, especially in the summer months. The family-friendly campsite is surrounded by pine forests and holm oaks and promises peace and relaxation. The campsite also offers a wide range of activities for children and sports enthusiasts alike.
The campsite for the whole family on the Adriatic coast
Camping Village Šimuni is located on the Croatian island of Pag, which belongs to Zadar County. The nearest larger municipality is Kolan, which is just under a kilometre away and has a population of only 800. The resort is located on the west side of the island in the immediate vicinity of the coast, which holidaymakers can easily reach on foot. Picturesque beaches of the finest white sand await them there, as well as bays with rocky coastal sections. The campsite has a total of 570 parcelled-out pitches measuring between 80 and 120 m². There are also 110 pitches for permanent campers and 331 rental accommodations on a total area of 40 hectares. The pitches have water and electricity connections and, depending on the location, some are right next to the beach. In addition to the camping pitches, holiday guests can also stay in the cosy mobile homes or traditional bungalows. The mobile homes have air conditioning, a fridge and satellite TV and are dog-friendly. The modern and barrier-free sanitary facilities have washing machines, tumble dryers and a baby changing room. Fast and free WiFi is available throughout the site via WiFi hotspots. The campsite is also dog-friendly and is perfect for camping with dogs in Croatia. Gourmets can fortify themselves in the two restaurants, where crayfish and other Dalmatian delicacies and Mediterranean specialities are served. Homemade cakes are prepared in the patisserie, and there are also cafés, a supermarket, a beach bar and a burger bar, so you can easily spend a longer stay here.
Extensive leisure facilities, water sports facilities and children's entertainment
Camping Village Šimuni has already been recognised by the Croatian Camping Association. The wide range of leisure activities also contributes to this. In the children's entertainment centre, 19 entertainers ensure that the youngsters never get bored. There are also water slides, water trampolines and a seawater park on the golden beach so that parents can keep their children busy at all times. Those who want to be active can take advantage of the extensive sports programme. Campers can choose between tennis, beach volleyball, sailing, cycling tours and diving courses. The wellness programme is a little more relaxed. On the salt beach, guests can undergo halotherapy, be pampered with a Thai massage and enjoy marvellous views of the Mediterranean. Overall, there is a sociable atmosphere at Camping Village Šimuni, which makes it easy to socialise with other guests. The nights are exceptionally quiet.
Great excursion destinations in the surrounding area
The various stretches of coastline are popular destinations for walks, as in addition to the popular sandy beaches you will also find some quiet bays, which in the best case scenario you will even have to yourself. In the small town of Kolan, it is worth visiting the local farmers, who are known for making the traditional sheep's cheese on the island of Pag. The city of Zadar offers cultural and historical highlights. The Church of St Donat, Zadar Cathedral and the Sea Organ are particularly worth seeing. This is an architectural masterpiece that creates different sounds with the help of the waves in the Mediterranean. The Telascica and Vransko Jezero nature parks also offer picturesque landscapes.
