Island of Rab

Rab is an island in the Kvarner Gulf, known as „the green island“ for its lush vegetation and dense pine forests – unlike its rockier neighbouring islands. The island is reached by ferry from the mainland (Stinica–Mišnjak route) or via the neighbouring island of Krk. Its landmark is the town of Rab, with its unmistakable silhouette of four Romanesque bell towers, making it one of the most beautiful small towns on the entire Adriatic. In the north of the island, near Lopar, lies the famous Rajska plaža (Paradise Beach) – a rare sandy beach on an otherwise mostly pebbly Adriatic coast, ideal for families with young children. Rab also has a long nudist tradition, dating back to 1936, when British King Edward VIII swam here. Every summer the medieval Rapska fjera festival comes alive with period costumes and traditional crafts. The island is the ideal choice for those seeking peace, nature and a family-friendly holiday away from the main tourist crowds. We offer a wide range of apartments and private accommodation directly from the owners, with no commission. Weather on the island of Rab
