Sveti Andrija (Croatian for Saint Andrew), often called Svetac (Croatian for saint) is an island in the Croatian part of the Adriatic Sea. It is situated 14 nautical miles (26 km) from Komiža (a town on the island of Vis). It is uninhabited, although it used to have permanent residents. Remains of Byzantine origin can be found on the island. The population census on Svetac from 1951 was around 60, most of these people are now deceased. All were members of Zanki family who came on the island 260 years ago (in the mid-18th century). The last one of the group who lived there all year round was Antonija Zanki, an elderly woman who died in 2000. Now members of Zanki family effectively live there four to six months a year, still keeping up the houses of their grandfathers, fishing, making famous red wine and olive oil. Most of members of Zanki family who own this, biggest private island in Adriatic, live in Komiža now (14 nm east).
