KRK

April 15, 2021

Occupying the area of 406 km² and the perimeter of 190 km of an indented coast, Island of Krk is the biggest island of the Adriatic Sea. Krk is located rather near the mainland and has been connected to it via a 1,430 m two-arch concrete bridge since 1980, one of the longest concrete bridges in the world.

Thanks a lot Helena!

Baška

August 03, 2020

From Baška, a resort town on the Croatian island of Krk. The Croatian birth certificate - the Baška tablet was found here in 1100. Baška is also recognizable as having one of the largest and most beautiful pebble beaches on the Adriatic, which is in a semicircle and more than 1800 metres long.
Like other villages on the island of Krk, even this village's old part contains the narrow streets and houses positioned one close to the other so that the atmosphere is typically Mediterranean. Apart from its beautiful beach, Baška is also interesting for its characteristic architecture, numerous cultural and historical monuments and its surrounding tour paths.

Thanks so much for another wonderful card Helena!

Njivice

July 08, 2020

The village Njivice is located in the northwest of the island Krk. Right at the coast, the western part is gazing upon the Mediterranean Sea and the interior of the village embraces the surrounding forest landscape. In close proximity to the village the remains of the Roman settlement Fulfinium as well as a basilica from the fifth century can be found.

Thanks a lot Helena!
