There are events you visit once, and there are events that become part of a place’s identity.
The Ribarski tjedan – Fishing Week in Crikvenica is one of them.
Celebrating its 60th edition, Ribarski tjedan is much more than a week of entertainment. It is a celebration of Crikvenica’s deep connection with the sea, fishing traditions, local culture, food, music and the unique Mediterranean atmosphere of the Crikvenica Riviera.
And for us at H&I , it is a particularly special event.
For more than 30 years, we have been helping guests discover Crikvenica and the surrounding Riviera, providing reliable accommodation, local information and personal assistance. Ribarski tjedan represents exactly what we love about our destination: authentic experiences, local traditions and the feeling of being part of the community.

What is Ribarski tjedan?
Ribarski tjedan, or Fishing Week, is one of the traditional highlights of the event calendar in Crikvenica.
The event celebrates the town’s maritime heritage and the important role that the sea and fishing have played in the lives of local people for generations.
During Ribarski tjedan, Crikvenica comes alive with a combination of traditional events, entertainment, gastronomy, music and activities connected with the sea and local heritage.
The atmosphere is unmistakably Mediterranean: boats in the harbour, the Adriatic just a few steps away, the smell of local food, music in the streets and people gathering together to enjoy one of Crikvenica’s most beloved traditions.
For visitors, it is an opportunity to experience a side of the destination that goes beyond the beach.
It is Crikvenica with a story to tell.
Why is the 60th Ribarski tjedan special?
Reaching the 60th edition is a remarkable milestone.
Six decades of Ribarski tjedan show how strongly this tradition is connected with Crikvenica and its identity. While the event continues to evolve and offer new experiences, its heart remains the same: the sea, the people and the traditions that have shaped life on the Riviera.
For visitors, this makes the 60th Ribarski tjedan an especially exciting time to discover Crikvenica.
You can enjoy the Adriatic during the day and then experience the town’s lively event atmosphere in the evening. You can explore the Riviera, taste local specialties, walk along the waterfront and discover why generations of visitors have returned to this part of the Croatian coast.

More than a beach holiday
Crikvenica is famous for its beaches, crystal-clear Adriatic Sea and pleasant Mediterranean climate.
But a great holiday is about more than sun and swimming.
Events such as Ribarski tjedan give visitors the chance to experience the destination rather than simply stay in it.
You can learn about the area’s maritime traditions, discover local flavours, meet people and experience the atmosphere of a real coastal town.
That is one of the reasons we believe Ribarski tjedan is such a great time to visit the Crikvenica Riviera.
Whether you are travelling as a couple, with friends or with your family, the event can become one of those holiday memories that stays with you long after you return home.
