Bakar · Kvarner
A town in a bay, with the calm of a small place
Old stone Bakar tumbles down the hill to the sea – and on the waterfront, where it all begins, Restaurant Vallis is waiting for you.
Why Bakar
History, the sea and a true Mediterranean rhythm
None of the crowds of the big resorts, yet everything is close: swimming, trips to Krk, walks in Opatija or an evening in Rijeka.
An old town on the hill
Stone houses, narrow stairways and the Frankopan castle above the bay – Bakar is one of the oldest towns in Kvarner.
A seafaring tradition
A town of seafarers and captains, home to one of the oldest maritime schools on the Adriatic. The waterfront is still full of boats.
Bakarska vodica
For centuries vines have grown on the terraced vineyards above the bay, giving the famous sparkling wine Bakarska vodica.
A perfect base for trips
Rijeka, Opatija, Crikvenica and the island of Krk are 15 to 30 minutes' drive away – and in the evening you return to the calm of a small town.
