Baska - Island Krk

As the cradle of the millennial history and literacy of the Croatian people (the Baška Tablet - the oldest Glagolitic text in the Church of Saint Lucia from the year 1100), Baška is a tourist town with many apartments and villas surrounded by vineyards and old stone gardens.

The biggest and one of the most beautiful Baška beaches is "Vela plaža", a natural pebble beach located in the centre of the town, especially suitable for families with children. A pleasant climate with over 2 500 sunny days per year and lavish vegetation with an abundance of entertainment and sports programs make Baška an excellent destination for your holiday on the island of Krk.

Krk

Called the Golden Island since ancient times due to its mild climate, lush vegetation and favourable position in the Kvarner Bay, the island of Krk is the largest island in the Adriatic. Its proximity and connection to the mainland makes it an attractive tourist destination.

The island of Krk is the cradle of culture and literacy as visible by the many monuments, museums, sacral buildings, such as the medieval centre of the town of Krk, Baška tablet in Jurandvor, the Franciscan monastery on the islet of Košljun...

Thanks to the eco-projects and a systematic concern for cleanliness and environmental protection, the island of Krk is an island of Blue Flags, which fly in the towns of Krk, Malinska, Njivica, Vrbnik and Šilo and Punat marina.

Kvarner - Baščanska ploča

Baška Tablet (Baščanska ploča) – the old Croatian monument was written in the Glagolitic script in circa 1100 and originates from the Church of St. Lucy in Jurandvor near Baška on the island of Krk. One of the oldest stone-carved monuments of the Croatian language contains information about the construction of the Church of St. Lucy and a record of Croatian King Zvonimir’s donation.

It represents a significant source for the history of the Croatian people, language and development of the Croatian Glagolitic script. It shows the sovereignty of Croatian King Zvonimir as the donor of land on the island; in addition to its linguistic and literary significance, the tablet is historically significant because of the first mention of the ruler’s name in the folk language.
