Opatija, the pearl of the Kvarner Bay
ADDRESS / LOCATION
Istria
Discover Opatija, the pearl of the Adriatic Sea and Kvarner Bay! Fall in love with its historic summer houses, hotels, parks and the charming spirit of the old Austrian-Hungarian Empire.
Situated right by the sea on the eastern side of Mt. Učka, the beautiful Opatija is the pearl of Kvarner and a town rich with history that you shouldn’t miss. Join us on this half-day trip to discover historic villas and summer houses from the period of the Austrian-Hungarian Empire. Visit St. Jacob’s Church and the abbey that lent its name to the town (Opatija is the Croatian word for abbey). Take a stroll through the park of Villa Angiolina where famous historical figures such as the Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph and Empress Maria Anna used to stay. Be sure to visit the impressive Kvarner Hotel, the oldest one in the Adriatic. Take a photo on the picturesque promenade, on the Croatian Walk of Fame, or pose next to the statue on a sea rock – the Maiden with the Seagull – the famous symbol of Opatija. Enrich this memorable experience by treating yourself to a coffee and cake on one of the sunny terraces facing the sea.
