A glimpse into history: exploring krk island’s rich cultural heritage.

The adjective ‘golden’ has been associated with the island of Krk since Roman times, and it’s not surprising at all because how can you sum up in one word the incredible diversity of landscapes, natural phenomena, and history that permeates the rocky fabric of this island – from prehistoric times, through ancient times, to the development into a cultural capital of Glagolitic script with the Frankopan princes of Krk and today’s popular tourist destination where you can anchor in secluded coves, spend the night in a lighthouse, or in exclusive hotel facilities.

Transportation and getting around Krk Island

Even before you reach the island by road via the Krk Bridge, on the islet of Sv. Marko, the remains of a church and a Venetian fortress stand as silent evidence of how important this navigational route through Vinodol Channel has been throughout history. These maritime routes remain important today, but they are now used by sailors.

To explore the island of Krk, you can sail from the mainland, specifically from Marina Novi in Novi Vinodolski, or Mitan Marina a kilometer south, from where you can visit the favorite harbors of Vrbnik and Baška with their surrounding beaches.

A bit further north, within the Klimno Bay, you’ll find the place of the same name, offering about 40 berths and good protection from winds from all directions, as well as motor service and boat repair in a shipyard with a 130-year tradition.

Embark on a Day Trip by Boat

Soline and Čižići are very popular for day trips, and you can also anchor there, not only because of the large beach but also because of the therapeutic mud in Meline.

However, if you start from ACI Marina Ičići near Opatija, you’ll probably head towards Njivice because, in Omišalj, despite a marina with around 200 berths in the Pesja Bay, sailors mostly just keep their boats there, and visitors somehow tend to avoid it due to the oil terminal that wants to expand into an LNG terminal, which further discourages guests. Unfortunately.

Unearth the Treasures of Krk Town: A Historical Adventure Through Time

The main town of Krk, with fortified walls rising from the sea, seems like a litmus test for other places on the island, but it stands out in every aspect with its size and preservation. During our visit, extensive work on the city’s infrastructure was in full swing, but residents and especially tourist services are expecting a significant increase in visitors.

town krk, aerial view

And rightfully so, because Krk, with its intertwined streets, towers, a bell tower, or the Cathedral of the Blessed Virgin Mary, as well as a new interpretative center of maritime heritage, deserves every minute of your time.

Looking at the map, the island of Krk is perfectly situated in the middle of the Kvarner region, with safe harbors and marinas of nearby islands Rab , Cres , Lošinj , Pag, as well as the ports of Opatija and Crikvenica within about 30 miles. Therefore, it’s not surprising that when it comes to sailors or boat owners, Marina Punat is the cradle of nautical tourism, growing into the best and largest marina in Kvarner since the 1960s.

Marina Punat: The Perfect Base for Exploring Krk Island

It’s interesting how among the yachts in the marina, over 70 percent are motorboats, whose owners have recognized the quality of service at Marina Punat. It’s the most awarded marina in the Adriatic and has held the Blue Flag continuously for 21 years.

Marina punat aerial view, Krk island

The director of Marina Punat wisely manages the marina with attention to employees and, first and foremost, their guests. The modern appearance of the marina and the abundance of technological solutions found here are part of a clear vision for the future.

‘Our goal is to continue building a system. I think we are entering the era of technology, and we don’t want it to trap us. We want both ourselves and our guests to feel good and to make it easier for us to work and be more available to our guests. In that sense, I consider the use of technology good because it will be impossible to avoid it. We need to use the right things intelligently, and that’s where our future lies,’ explained Bernarda Renata Marević.

Riva 88 Folgore motoryacht

Yachting Riva 88 Folgore Review: Italian Lightning Bolt

Today, the marina has around 850 berths in the sea and more than 500 dry berths, as well as a shipyard with three slips up to 600 tons, a dry marina with pontoons raised to the level of the boat, and other amenities, including various shops available to sailors.

Today, this is one of the most equipped marinas, and a cycle of investments is just concluding, from the arrangement of a completely new part of the marina with the most modern sanitary facilities to the Kanajt residential area with 22 rooms where sailors and ‘ordinary’ guests can rest. Their SPA center is also popular among marina guests.

In collaboration with Marina Cloud, a sensor system for the preventive protection of boats called Sense4Boat has been developed, which informs the yacht owner about all data related to their vessel in real-time. Through a mobile application, you can also have access to photos of your yacht, which the marina staff stores in the system once a week.

The system uses state-of-the-art self-powered and autonomous sensors that are installed on the boat, with very simple installation. These sensors provide insight into the bilge pump’s condition on the boat, detect smoke and increased temperatures, and continuously monitor the battery status.

Connected to surveillance posts with video surveillance, this advanced technology is linked to a central computer, providing all the data about the boat and the berth it is on. The best part is that contracted boats are entitled to free sensors. Therefore, it’s not surprising that more than 1300 owners have entrusted their boats to Marina Punat, with nearly 90 percent remaining loyal to the marina for decades. The main markets are Germany, Austria, and Slovenia, so it’s not surprising that there are about 150 charter boats connected to the marina.

Košljun: Uncover the Island’s Benedictine Monastery and Fortified Church

Arriving at Marina Punat in February also has its advantages, so we made the most of the marina’s hospitality and sailed by boat to Košljun, a tiny islet isolated like the pupil of an eye in the Puntarski Bay. It was chosen by Franciscans as their home for contemplation and work. It’s incredible when you are alone on such an islet; it’s easy to feel the call of meditation and wish to stay.

A walk through the cloister, a small ethnological and natural history collection, and a large collection of books and incunabula are a journey through the centuries of this microcosm and a must-visit stop, which you can also reach by kayaking from the marina since the depths around the islet are not suitable for boats that draw more than a meter and a half.

Koslju islet, island of Krk, Croatia

If, by any chance, you’re bothered by the hustle and bustle in the marina, you can moor inside Puntarska Draga or in the small harbor of Dunat, where there are moorings available. Common nautical routes head southeast of the island of Krk, and along the route, you’ll come across unreal sandy beaches squeezed between rocks, quite secluded except during the season.

After Stara Baška, you’ll find the Surbova beach, followed by the beautiful anchorage of Bracol, Vela Draga, and then the beaches Škuljica and Škrinjica, perfect for exploring by kayak, leading to Vela beach near Baška.

Baška: Discover the Secrets of the Baška Tablet

The fortified castle of Baška, where the Krk princes resided, is now just a ruin, which the inhabitants abandoned in the late 14th century despite the fertile land of Bašćanska Dolina and the only permanent watercourse on the Adriatic islands. They settled in Baška by the sea instead.

The nearly two-kilometer-long semicircular sandy crescent that forms Bašćanski Bay is most beautiful when viewed from a nearby hill with the church of St. John, offering a magnificent view of the bay and the island of Prvić (protected aquatorium), as well as the coast with the mighty Velebit as a dramatic backdrop.

Baska, island of Krk

Although unproven, but certainly open to imagination, is the possibility that it was precisely because of such beauty that the oldest written monument of Croats from the 12th century, written in Glagolitic script – the Baška Tablet, originated here.

What is certain is that at the beginning of the 20th century, thanks to Emil Geistlich, Baška opened its beauty to tourists by opening the first hotel and bathing resort. Today, culture and tourism are intertwined, so from the town itself, you can start cycling or hiking tours of up to 90 km, climb nearby climbing sites, or even learn Glagolitic letters on a trail with 35 letter-shaped sculptures.

Off the Beaten Path: Uncovering Hidden Gems on Krk Island

Another attraction in Baška – the Path to the Moon will take you to beautiful viewpoints, as well as to the Diviška pool, and numerous pastures with dry stone walls and horses are part of the magnificent landscape and a beautiful environment for hiking and exploring. The small harbor is located further north and is almost connected to Vela.

Diviška pool, Krk

From Mali Port all the way to Cape Glavine south of Vrbnik is the Kuntrep ornithological reserve, so anchoring of all types of vessels is prohibited within 200 meters of coastal nests, feeding areas, and resting places of eagles to avoid disturbing them.

Vrbnik: A Hilltop Gem with a Rich History

Impressive cliffs, rising about fifty meters above the sea, on which the fortified town of Vrbnik stands, are a beautiful and unusual sight when approaching from the sea. This fortified town with a labyrinth of narrow streets that are a thousand years old is very attractive, but what Vrbnik is most famous for can already be found on the waterfront, in the unpretentious but pleasant cellar of the Vrbnik Cooperative, the temple of Žlahtina, the golden variety that is autochthonous here and the only true home of this white grape variety.

Wine Lovers’ Paradise: Uncork the Flavors of Krk Island’s Renowned Žlahtina

You can moor at the pier, and Nuluk and Pod Kovač are small city beaches for refreshment before the Žlahtina tasting. Moving south, you’ll find the beaches Zgribnica, Kozica, and Potovošće.

Marinko Vladić, a longtime director, is an oenologist who has been steering the Vrbnik Cooperative for a quarter of a century and is the man who first came up with the idea of sinking champagne into the sea. He created Valomet, a champagne aged and covered with marine flora, and many winemakers quickly embraced the technique of ‘submerging’ cages. Marinko is proudest of Zlatna žlahtina, which, in addition to the well-known aroma and Protected Designation of Origin (PDO), can also be tasted aged in oak barrels as Grand Cru, with a more lavish bouquet. It’s a perfect match for more serious grilled fish or domestic lamb.

Vrbnik town, Krk island

The cellar on the waterfront will soon be exclusively dedicated to tourists because the operation of this cooperative with investments of around 17 million kuna, along with a new facility, can only mean even more satisfied Žlahtina lovers. You can taste this autochthonous white variety in the town at the wine house of Ivan Katunar, Šipun winery, and several other family wineries or Konoba Nada.

A hotel dedicated to this variety, namely the Vinotel Gospoja, is a modern and luxurious accommodation worthy of the reputation of Žlahtina. In addition to an incredible sea view, the interior features a total wine design, so each floor is filled with names and associations with wine varieties. Along with wellness and a top-notch restaurant, tasting Wine Gospoja is a perfect scenario for an unforgettable evening in this ancient town.

A visit to the old Vrbnik house will reveal what life was like in the Middle Ages when Vrbnik, under the Frankopan princes, was known as a cultural center and where the Vrbnik Statute from 1388, written in Glagolitic script, originated. Glagolitic missals and incunabula in the Croatian language were printed until 1893 when the last Glagolitic missal was published.

A Culinary Delight: Indulge in Krk Island’s Gastronomic Gems

On leaving Krk, we stop in Njivice, and although there aren’t many berths on the operational waterfront, you can moor freely if you’re a fan of true gastronomy. In the Rivica restaurant, owned by our host from the beginning of the text, you don’t have to target the season because the restaurant operates year-round and is based on local and seasonal ingredients, with pleasant conversation being an integral part of the menu.

Adriatic shrimps

‘We combine domestic tradition, Italian cuisine, and Viennese influences in the restaurant, so I dare say we dabble in fusion cuisine and don’t shy away from modern culinary techniques. On the other hand, we strive to make the ingredients as original as possible, especially when it comes to seafood. Our Kvarner scampi, as well as white fish, cuttlefish, and lobsters, are all presented through several dishes, but the main one is carpaccio or, in the old days, ‘under lemon,’ and this dish is rightly called ‘Sea Passions,’ Dražen proudly explains.

As we listen to Dražen, plates of scampi ‘under lemon’ arrive at the table, seasoned with orange emulsion and garnished with finely chopped apple, followed by a plate with Rivica’s signature dish: scampi with homemade maneštra (a traditional dish), then squid on the port with homemade broskva (a type of pasta), which, for a light dinner in the middle of February, means true pleasure complemented by lemon and pistachio mousse and a panna cotta and chocolate cake.

Charter a Catamaran and Experience Unparalleled Freedom

superyacht in krk

Lagoon Sixty5 ‘Amada Mia’ is one of the most admirable luxury sailing catamaran available for charter on Adriatic coast, Croatia.

Dražen is aware that Njivice is an incidental destination for sailors because the habit is to sail from Punat and turn left to Lošinj-Unije and beyond, so Njivice are in the sights of sailors in the pre-season and post-season. ‘We are recognized by many for our homemade pasta, and the dish is always made ‘al momento,’ and everyone recognizes it right away, so they always come back to us,’ Dražen proudly says.

They are especially careful with oils and the wine list, as evidenced by the glass wine cellar inside the restaurant, which has not only enriched the space but also hides carefully selected wines from all over Croatia, and famous Croatian winemakers often visit here for ‘Ćakule s vinom’ (wine talks).

So, isn’t it fair and right to weave and complete the story about the golden island of Krk through gastronomy, through turquoise shores and hidden beaches, beautiful anchorages, fortified towns, and golden Žlahtina? Of course it is, so set sail for the island of Krk on the first free day…

Krk Yacht Charters

Krk yacht charters offer beautiful beaches and a gourmet experience.

Called the “Golden Island” because of its mild Mediterranean climate, geographic location in the heart of Kvarner Bay and collection of natural gems, Krk Island is as enchanting as it is unique.

As the largest of Croatia’s 1,185 islands, Krk is also one of the busiest – boasting throngs of visitors from across the globe, namely Germany and Austria, visiting its verdant grounds to stay in its plentiful holiday houses, campsites, and hotels.

With a varied landscape, one that includes everything from lush forests to jagged, rocky cliffs, Krk is dotted with a handful of small, historic settlements.

Krk Yacht Charters – Things to Do & See

Krk yacht charters

Forming a semicircle along Baska Beach, a 2-kilometer stretch of pebbled ground and sparkling, translucent waters, is the town of Baska. Regarded as ‘the town at the end of the world” – because of its place at the end of Krk’s long, main island road. Baska is recognized for its beautiful beaches, historic, but whimsical mainlands, and immaculate views.

Home to only 1,800 inhabitants, the small town of Punat can be found on the southern coast of the island of Krk. Filled with quaint, charming streets, seaside houses, local taverns, and arched doorways everywhere you turn, Punat is a town steeped in Croatian tradition. Home to the biggest and oldest marina in the entire Adriatic Sea, one large enough to accommodate 1,200 ships at one time, Punat is the ideal destination for yachters to come anchor and explore.

Located on the island’s northern coast, Krk Town is the center of life in Krk. Built around an ancient walled city center, today, the town has expanded to include surrounding hills and bays, a port, beaches, camping grounds and hotels. A testament to its interesting history, Krk Town still houses the remains of Roman settlements, ancient walls, historic gates, a grand Romanesque cathedral, and a 12th-century Frankopan castle; remnants of the past that are a part of daily living in Krk Town, today.

The ‘golden island’ Krk sits close to the mainland in Kvarner Bay, encompassed by the islands of Cres and Rab. It is the largest and most densely populated island on the Adriatic. Deeply connected to the number 7 throughout its long history, Krk also has seven towns. They appear between coves, valleys, and thick Mediterranean forests, while its karst landscapes reveal themselves in mountains and ponds. But Krk is more than its natural beauty - it is the cradle of Croatian culture best experienced on your Krk yacht charter.

Krk, also known as the "Golden Island," is a captivating gem in the Adriatic Sea and one of the largest islands in Croatia. It is easily accessible from the mainland, thanks to a bridge that has linked the two since the 1980s. Krk is full of natural wonders and is home to two lakes and several rivers.

Insiders still have no idea what's going to happen to Russian oligarchs' seized superyachts

  • It's been two years since Russia invaded Ukraine, leading to sanctions against Russian oligarchs.
  • Many of their superyachts were seized or frozen , leading industry insiders to question their fate.
  • The yachts, some of which are worth hundreds of millions of dollars, remain in a state of limbo.

Insider Today

More than two years after Russia invaded Ukraine, the boating world still doesn't have many answers about what's going on with the very large, expensive elephants in the sea: oligarchs' superyachts .

The war prompted many governments to enact sanctions against Russia's richest , including seizing their superyachts worth hundreds of millions of dollars. But it's unclear whether they can be sold or who'd buy them, leaving ports peppered with massive boats stuck in a floating limbo.

"The Russian problem, it's becoming a bigger and bigger and bigger problem," one luxury yacht broker told Business Insider at the Palm Beach International Boat Show last week. Like many others, he requested not to be named, given the sensitive nature of the matter at hand and the generally discreet nature of the industry.

Russia has been a massive player in the massive boat market for a long time. In August 2021 — about six months before Russia's Ukraine invasion — Russians owned the second-largest share of yachts over 40 meters in length, according to a report from the industry publication SuperYacht Times.

They were responsible for 16% of new build superyacht purchases in the decade preceding the report and are known for splashing out on extravagant interiors and unique features. (One builder BI spoke to recalled a mandate from an oligarch for a large safe in the owner's cabin in which he could keep his rifles. The builder later learned he'd use them to skeet shoot on deck.)

But those sales have now screeched to a halt as oligarchs get hit by international sanctions. At least a dozen superyachts — worth well over $1 billion combined — have been affected.

And no one is quite sure what will happen to them.

Russia's sanctioned superyachts are hard to buy and sell

The first problem is that many of the yachts are "frozen" — not seized. That means that although the Russian owners can't operate or collect them, they don't technically belong to an overseas government, so they can't be sold without special permission.

Earlier this month, federal prosecutors petitioned a judge asking for consent to sell the Amadea, the 106-meter superyacht that has been docked in San Diego and costs the US as much as $922,000 a month to maintain.

"I've had some inquiries, but all you can tell them is we don't know the outcome yet" of the case, another superyacht broker told BI at the yacht show.

Related stories

And despite the broker's claim of interest in yachts like Amadea , most ultrarich — or at least their brokers — don't want to go near the vessels with a ten-foot pole, even if the government does get legal permission to sell them.

"How does it look if you bought a Russian boat?" Julia Simpson, a broker at Thompson of Monaco, said. "Even if it's completely legal and normal, there are too many things on the line," she said, like how the original owner got their money and whether that could make the new buyer look bad.

There are also possible legal implications, as it's hard for the government to prove who actually owns the yachts.

"Oligarchs typically structure their ownership of these high-value assets through a web of offshore shell companies and trusts that is designed to conceal the true owner," Joshua Naftalis, a former federal prosecutor who now works for Pallas Partners, told BI.

And if the government does assume ownership, it's highly dependent on court orders. For example, a Russian whose yacht had been seized by the French government regained access to his boat after winning a legal battle in 2022.

"It's a very difficult process to buy them," Ralph Dazert, the head of intelligence at SuperYacht Times, told BI. "There is a high risk of the former (Russian) owner suing you to get the boat back."

He pointed to the Alfa Nero, the 82-meter yacht that Eric Schmidt planned to purchase for $67 million last year in an auction put on by Antigua and Barbuda. He backed out after various parties tried to block the sale, likely deeming it not worth the legal headache.

"When the reason for sanctioning goes away, which it may do," the Russian owners will try to get their boats back , Simpson said. After all, "the government's not going to pay them."'

That said, if sanctions are dropped, the yachts will be worth much less than when they were seized, as a boat not in use deteriorates much faster than one sailing the seas.

"Those yachts need to be used to be kept in shape, kept in condition," the second broker said. "​​Just having them sit at the dock with a temporary crew on board is not good for the boats."

And the sanctioned Russians who have managed to maintain control of their superyachts won't have an easy time offloading them in the future.

Americans who try to do business with sanctioned oligarchs would have a number of hoops to jump through — like finding a bank to process the purchase, which would be next to impossible. If somehow they did and the government caught wind, they'd face hefty penalties and the transaction would be void.

So Russia's richest have found themselves "stuck" sailing in a select few countries that will let them, like the Maldives, Montenegro, and Dubai.
