Paddling around island of Rab, Croatia

August 13 - 18, 2012

5 days, 91 kilometers paddling

on August 13, we put the Excursion to the roof of the car, and headed to the sea

show yourself as well

give it to me...

ok, that will be good in this way also

the free parking place in Stinića (we left the car here when we were paddling around Rab)

starting point next to the parking place

view of Rab from the continent - Let's start!

Please turn the cam around!

the first stop was the bay of Mag

where we just had a little rest...

and headed towards to Lopar!

we spent the day in an amazing bay

in the evening we landed in Lopar near to the camp San Marino

and had a fantastic dinner on the beach!

we spent the night in the Podpećine bay

it is hard to awake and get out of the sleeping bag...

but as the sun rose we folded our tent (we was afraid of the penalty of 2000HRK because of spending a night in a tent outside of a campsite)

and after the morning coffee we started to visit Goli Otok, which was a prison island in the communism

it is just ruins now (lucky for us that we didn't payed for tourist guide or for anything)

we could see the island of Prvić first and then the island of Grgur when we left Goli,

but we headed back to the Lopar peninsula!

Some spirit and breakfast "on the first class" :)

... it is Wednesday and we will have our breakfast here...

...in this boat-wreck, but it has a built-in litter-bin...

...and seats and a kind of table...

we spent the day here, in the bay of Saramić

in the evening we left this bay

and paddled along the coast of the Lopar Peninsula

and we headed toward to the northern point of island Rab

to reach Maman, the island where we spent our third night.

in the morning we continued our way to the city of Rab, paddling around the Dundo Peninsula

We touched Kampor to had a beer and a burek for breakfast!

we spent the whole day in an awesome bay on the northwest side of the Dundo

... the Dundo looks like this:

... we are at the northwest side of it...

the sea is wonderful, it is hard to express how,

and we found perfect places for setting up a tent if you would spend a night here.

It was really fantastic here on the Dundo,
