Kvarner, Croatia

Where the sea meets its story.

Spend the morning by San Marino, the afternoon among the stone lanes of Novi, and another day in the vineyards of Vinodol. A seaside stay, with somewhere else to take you.

The Adriatic, with depth.

Novi Vinodolski sits on the Croatian mainland, on the Kvarner coast between Crikvenica and Senj. Above the waterfront, a compact old town leads towards a white bell tower. Inland, the Vinodol landscape changes the scale of the journey.

Come for the water, but give the town an evening of its own. The castle square, the fishing settlements and the vineyards tell different parts of the same story. Two nights make a useful beginning; a longer stay lets you follow them at your own pace.

Novi Vinodolski

Four ways into the place.

San Marino

A chapel at sea.

San Marino is a small islet off Novi, marked by its chapel. Watch it from the town shore before heading uphill: the sea and the old town belong in the same day.

A town that takes part.

Mesopust connects Novi to its carnival traditions; summer brings evenings such as Okolotorno into the old town. These are reasons to choose a particular weekend, not promises of a programme every night. Check the official calendar for your dates.
