Fishermen's Night : Komiza

Posted by Simp 31 July 2006

We were staying in Vis town on Vis island, and stumbled upon a festival in the neighbouring town of Komiza. The fishermen cook fish on the pier and there is glitzy music, dancing girls, fireworks, and a fish-weighing contest. The party goes on till well past dawn, and regular shuttle buses run to and from Vis town. Lots of fun.
