Baška is the best known tourist resort on the island of Krk, the Adriatic's biggest island.

Krk’s position in the northern part of the Croatian Adriatic makes it the closest island to Central Europe. Baška’s favorable location has ensured its continuous growth and prosperity, as well as a distinctive place on the tourist scene, making the town one of the most popular tourist destinations on the Adriatic.

The town is located in a gentle valley and in a bay surrounded by vineyards, olive groves and flowering broom, with a picturesque background of the rocky mountains of Velebit and the islet of Prvić, which seem to shelter its unique 1800 m long pebbly beach, justly said to be one of the loveliest in the Adriatic.

Baška has one of the most impressive and ancient cultures in Europe. Its cultural heritage makes it one of the most interesting and appealing places of the Croatian Adriatic, and Europe in general.

Baška is known in history and literature for its famed Baška Tablet, but it is also proud of other valuable cultural features that attract attention, such as the old nucleus of the town, the remains of a Roman settlement, and sacral monuments.
