Komiža is located on the west side of the island of Vis, Croatia, in the deep Komiža Bay. It is separated from the rest of the island by the Hum massif (highest peak 587 m) which descends steeply to the shores of the bay. Such geographical position, and the lack of agricultural land, determined the orientation of Komiža towards the sea and fishing. It is connected to the town of Vis, 10 km away, by a new road via the Sveti Mihovil pass. The distance along the old road Vis – Komiža that passes through the southern part of the island is 20 km.
