This typical Mediterranean village is the largest place on all of the
Zadar islands and one of the
most popular fishermen's
villages on the Adriatic.
Its specific atmosphere is
created by numerous
fishermen's boats docked in
the harbour. The traditional
Kali Fishermen's Night is
held in August.
KALI, a village
and harbour on the
south-eastern coast of the
island of Ugljan, 3 km
southeast of Preko;
population 2,245. Economy is
based on farming,
viticulture, olive growing,
fishing and seafaring. A
local road connects the
village with the opposite
side of the island; there
are two pebble coves
(Lamjana Vela and Lamjana
Mala), separated by a small
peninsula. In front of the
coast is the islet of
Osljak. Smaller yachts may
dock in the harbour, along
the breakwater. Kali is
located on the regional road
running along the entire
island.
The village was first mentioned in 1343. In 1698 the Baroque church replaced an earlier structure. On the hill above the village is a small church of St. Peregrine from the 14th century.
