Sports and recreational facilities include three boccia courts,
as well as various playgrounds for basketball, handball and
football. Water sports and diving (during the diving season) are
also very interesting.
The special atmosphere of summer evenings is supplemented by
performances of harmony-singing groups or children's choirs on
the coastal promenade or in one of local restaurants.
Exhibitions and other cultural events are regularly organized,
especially when the Croats from the United States of America,
actually Komiza natives, visit their mother country. |
