Rab is a lushly-forested island known for its beautiful sandy beaches and year-round temperate climate, which give it a reputation as a green paradise within the Adriatic.
The island is protected by three ridges that keep away cold winds from the nearby Velebit Mountains, making it a perfect choice for visitors looking for nature tourism opportunities. Its main resort area, Rab Town, is full of beautiful buildings dating back to the Medieval era, including its stunning 1509 Town Loggia, which features a 26-meter bell tower offering unparalleled panoramic views of the nearby coastline. Fine visitor beaches include Paradise Beach, an ideal spot for families traveling with young children due to its shallow sea waters.
