Crikvenica: The Adriatic’s Hidden Gem on the Croatian Riviera
Brought to you by H&I Tourist Agency
Nestled along the sun-drenched shores of Croatia’s Kvarner Bay, Crikvenica is a seaside town that blends Mediterranean charm, rich history, and natural beauty into an irresistible destination. While it may not be as internationally famous as Dubrovnik or Split, Crikvenica holds its own with a welcoming atmosphere, turquoise waters, and a pace of life that invites you to slow down and savor every moment.
A Town that is steeped in history
Crikvenica’s roots go deep into Roman times, but its name and true identity began to form in the 15th century around a monastery built by the Pauline monks. The word crikva means “church” in Croatian, and it’s from this that the town gets its name. Since then, Crikvenica has transformed from a humble fishing village into one of the oldest organized tourist destinations on the Adriatic coast—its tourism industry dating back over 125 years.
And if you wish to experience this wonderfull history you can choose to stay at the many wonderfull apartments and houses in this wonderfull town provided by:
Beaches That Beckon
The real star of Crikvenica is its coastline. The town boasts a string of Blue Flag beaches, a testament to their cleanliness and sustainability. Whether you’re sunbathing on the sandy Crni Molo beach, enjoying water sports at Kaštel Beach, or relaxing in a quiet cove nearby, the Adriatic’s warm, clear waters are always within reach.
The beaches are located right by a beautiful walkway and many apartments in the Strossmayer street.
Families especially love Crikvenica for its shallow waters and safe swimming spots. There’s even a dog beach, so the whole family, including furry friends, can join the fun.
There are multiple apartments that you might find in this area right next to the beach but be quick! As they are reserved fast!
Our wonderful apartment Beach Bliss is located just a stone toss away from a beautiful pebble beach.
