Metajna is a village in Croatia, in the municipality of Novalja, with a population of 236.[1] It is located in the Bay of Pag on the island of Pag.

The Slana concentration camp was about 5 km away from the village, which operated during the beginning of the World War II. After the Yugoslav Wars of the 1990s there was a continuous attempt to hide the camp's history in local propaganda.
