💡 Tips

  • Head down to Vela Jana bay in the late afternoon to witness some of the most spectacular sunsets on Krk island.
  • Look for signs saying 'Domaće maslinovo ulje' in front of local houses to buy authentic olive oil directly from producers.
  • Hike the marked Šotovento trails that wind through ancient oak forests and olive groves.
  • Walk to the smaller coastal coves instead of driving, as the access roads are often very steep and narrow.
  • Visit the 15th-century Franciscan monastery in Glavotok for a peaceful atmosphere right by the water.
