Rab

What it is

Rab town is a small, walled medieval town on a peninsula lined with four bell towers, one of the more distinctive skylines on this coast. Lopar, at the island's northern tip, has Rajska plaža (Paradise Beach), one of the few genuinely sandy beaches on this stretch of coast.

Who it suits

Rab town suits history and a compact old-town stay; Lopar suits families after a real sand beach rather than the pebble coast typical elsewhere on this coast.

When to go

The sandy beaches at Lopar get busy in July–August; the short Mišnjak–Stinica crossing, tracked live below, is the one to watch on a summer driving day.

How to get there

Mišnjak–Stinica (Rapska plovidba, car ferry, 20 min) is the short direct crossing from the mainland, and its queue is tracked live below. Valbiska (Krk)–Lopar (Jadrolinija, 80 min) is the longer alternative from the north, useful if arriving via Krk instead.

Crossings serving Rab

Built from the ferry spine at build time — operator, vessel, typical duration and the current one-way passenger fare range, one row per real choice (a repeated timetable line is grouped in, not listed again).
