IČIĆI | Opatija Riviera | Croatia | Pointerstravel
Ičići - a hidden gem in Kvarner Gulf
Ičići is a small tourist village with around 800 inhabitants located in Kvarner Gulf. Village is 5 kilometers away from Opatija and 15 kilometers from Rijeka. Inhabitants of Ičići mainly work in the tourism industry. Although small, Ičići boasts rich repertoire of activities for tourists; from sports and clubbing to day trips and beautiful sea.
Ičići through history
The sea has always been the main resource for the people of Ičići, ever since the 9th century BC, when the Liburnians (an Illyrian tribe) used to build their fast ships along these coasts and then sailed to North Africa and Asia Minor. It is therefore no wonder that this ancient connection with the sea has been preserved until the present day.
What makes it worth visiting
Today, Ičići is most famous for its attractive beach and one of the best marinas in the Adriatic. For more than a decade, Ičići beach has been awarded with the Blue Flag, an international symbol of high-quality service and cleanliness, and has been listed as one of the five best-maintained beaches in Croatia. From Ičići, visitors have a clear view on two of the largest Croatian islands, Krk and Cres, both of which can be visited by ferry. Ičići lie in the foothill of Učka mountain with a summit at 1401 meters above sea level. Učka mountain and its surroundings were declared a nature park due to their exceptional beauty and uniqueness.
Still, one of the main reasons why people come to Ičići is its beautiful beach that is located at the center of the village and has a concrete and sandy part. The beach is a target of large investments every year and due to that is continually awarded with the Blue Flag. Despite all of this, entrance to the beach is free.
Lungomare, a very famous promenade built by Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph I, passes through Ičići. This magnificent promenade is 12 kilometers long and spans from Volosko all the way to Lovran, with Ičići being almost right in between the two. At night it is dimly lit which offers an excellent surroundings for romantic strolls with that special person. Ičići is very well connected with surrounding towns with many city and intercity buses.
If you are looking for an ideal vacation, be it on your yacht or on a beach, Ičići is one of those top destinations you simply must visit while in Croatia.

Rijeka's Beaches
Rijeka's beaches author: Valter Stojšić
Thanks to the Mediterranean climate, the bathing season in Rijeka begins in spring and lasts until late autumn. Two Rijeka beaches, Ploče and Kostanj are the proud owners of Blue Flags, the finest proof of the cleanliness of Rijeka's sea. The sea is clean and blue, the sun is drawn here and the beaches are numerous, diverse, large and noisy, small and secluded, pebbly, concrete, rocky, hidden...
With regard to the city location, Rijeka’s beaches are located to the far eastern and to the far western parts of the city. On the eastern side, at Pećine there are eight beaches, most of which are only a few minutes away from the city centre. On the western part, you can find your ideal beach from Kantrida to Preluk - there are five beaches on Kantrida, and if you do not like sea water you can take a swim and sunbathe in the Kantrida Pools, the largest and most beautiful swimming pool complex in Croatia. There are a whole series of larger and smaller beaches and bays from Bivio to Preluk, which are connected by a promenade with numerous facilities, from catering and sport amenities to parks for children located in the shade of the vegetation. These beaches are ideal for those who, besides sunbathing and bathing, enjoy sporting activities at the seaside too. Thanks to its very specific position and the wind that blows there, Preluk beach is famous and a favourite beach of surfers. Also, smaller, nameless beaches can be found here together with hidden bays and beaches for those who prefer being in a more secluded area. Some of them are only reachable from the sea.
City buses drive to all beaches. The beach can be found just a few minutes’ walk from the bus station and there is free car parking close to all the beaches.
