Krk, the largest island in the Adriatic, is easily accessible via Tito's bridge which connects it to the mainland. Officially opened in 1980 and constructed in two reinforced concrete arches, the bridge has a total length of 1430 m, and was considered an unique engineering feat at the time.

The first town on the island of Krk after the bridge is Njivice, where the famous fish restaurant Rivica is awaiting hungry guests with a selection of fresh seafood dishes, juicy meat platters and quality wines.
