Pag's most award-winning cheese producer has a wonderful shop where you can taste many of the cheeses before you buy; there are dozens to choose from and they can slice what you buy for your picnic or vacuum-seal it so you can take it back home. There's also a range of other local goodies, including prosciutto and olive oil.
