Sightseeing in Rab island Croatia
Sightseeing in Rab island Croatia, the happiest place in this part of Dalmatia. There are over 20 sandy beaches located in the western part of the island. Most of them are very small, located in picturesque bays, where tourists can lay their towels and bask in the hot sun. Tourism on the island of Rab Croatia is 120 years old, and the most popular place is the eponymous town of Rab, which is the third most populous.
Before him in the ranking by population is the town of Lopar and the town of Barbat. Approximately about 1,000 people each. My family and I were guests in the town of Rab and we can safely say that we really liked it here. The destination is ideal for a family vacation with young children.

These are the Romanesque tower of the Church of the Assumption and the tower on the ruins of the Church of St. John the Evangelist.
The monastery of the church "St. Justin" from the 16th century is now a museum with sacred objects. The old town attracts with its cobbled streets and beautiful historic buildings from different times. They are cramped and there are souvenir and clothing stores everywhere.
The patron saint of the island of Rab is St. Christopher, whose skull is kept as a sacred relic. According to legend, St. Marin, who founded San Marino in 301, managed to hide on the island of Rab, because at that time Christians were persecuted by the Roman Empire.

In recent decades, part of the livelihood has fallen on tourism. There is a daily ferry connection with the mainland between Mishnjak - Jablanac. The passenger catamaran Rijeka - Rab - Novalja is about 15 minutes away. I recommend visiting this small island of Croatia, you will not regret it.
