OPATIJA

Opatija, a beautiful seaside town on the Adriatic Sea and a famous 19-century health resort, is the largest city in the region. It occupies a central position along the northern part of the Croatian Adriatic Sea, right by the picturesque Kvarner Bay. This charming city exudes an air of tranquil elegance and boasts breathtaking beauty.

Opatija's allure lies in its collection of villas and buildings that possess exceptional architectural significance. Nestled amidst the lush, evergreen slopes of Mount Učka, bathed by the therapeutic waters of the sea, and enveloped by meticulously manicured parks, the city seamlessly blends modernity with the abundant offerings of a premier tourist destination.

One of Opatija's most iconic features is its nearly 12-kilometer-long seaside promenade, known as the famous Opatija "Lungomare." Stretching along the Opatija coastline from Volosko to Lovran, this promenade imparts a distinctive charm to the city and its riviera, allowing visitors to revel in the coastal beauty while strolling by the sea.

What makes Opatija particularly appealing is its unique climate and temperature. It captivates not only during the scorching summer months when it offers respite from the heat but also in the winter. Thanks to its mild and warm winter temperatures, Opatija has been a beloved retreat for Austrian aristocracy since the 19th century. Its all-season allure is truly remarkable, drawing travelers seeking both relaxation and rejuvenation year-round.
