The Island of Rab
Rab, one of Croatia’s most enchanting islands, is a true gem of the Adriatic. Known as the “island of happiness,” Rab offers a perfect blend of sandy beaches, crystal-clear waters, and charming historic towns. Its famous Paradise Beach is ideal for families, while hidden coves and pine-fringed shores invite relaxation and adventure. The medieval old town of Rab captivates with narrow stone streets, Romanesque towers, and lively cafés. Nature lovers can explore scenic hiking and cycling trails, while food enthusiasts enjoy fresh seafood and local wines. With over 2,500 hours of sunshine a year, Rab is perfect for a holiday filled with culture, nature, and relaxation. It’s a destination that truly has something for everyone.


Climbing the Four Towers of Rab Town
One of the true highlights of Rab Island is exploring its iconic four bell towers, rising proudly above the medieval old town. Each tower offers a glimpse into Rab’s rich history and provides breathtaking views over terracotta rooftops, the Adriatic Sea, and surrounding islands. Climbing these towers is a rewarding experience for both history lovers and photographers, as you discover different architectural styles and the island’s unique skyline. The walk through Rab’s narrow stone streets connecting the towers is equally charming, filled with small shops, cafés, and local life. This experience combines culture, adventure, and stunning scenery, making it a must-do activity and one of the most memorable highlights of your stay on Rab.
Relax at Paradise Beach
Paradise Beach, one of Croatia’s most famous sandy beaches, is a must-visit on Rab. Stretching nearly 2 kilometres, it’s perfect for swimming, sunbathing, or enjoying water sports. Families love its shallow waters, while beach bars and restaurants add to the lively atmosphere. The beach is also a hub for fun activities like beach volleyball and paddleboarding. With its stunning sunsets, it’s the ideal place to end a perfect summer day.
Explore Komrčar Park
Komrčar Park offers peaceful walking paths under centuries-old pines and lush Mediterranean vegetation. Just steps from Rab town, it’s perfect for hiking, cycling, or simply relaxing with sea views. A true green oasis. You might spot colourful birds or enjoy the scent of wild herbs along the trails. The park is a favourite among locals and visitors for picnics and evening strolls.

I was at the San Marino campsite in Lopar with my family and I have to be honest: it was by far the worst camping vacation we have ever experienced. The entire campsite looks totally outdated, neglected and completely disorganized. Everything is all over the place, nothing looks neat or well thought out. The wash houses are simply disgusting - old, worn out and unhygienic. There is hardly any water in the showers and when there is, it is freezing cold. There is absolutely no relaxation or comfort here. There is garbage everywhere, no matter where you look. What made the stay even more unbearable was the constant noise. The whole campsite is extremely busy until late at night. Loud music from other campers, no consideration, no peace and quiet - and no security to stop it all. It was almost impossible to sleep. Our children wanted to leave on the very first day. They cried because they didn't like it there at all - and that has never happened to us on any other vacation before. Really only there. That really affected us as parents. What's more, dogs were peeing in the sand all over the pitches. That doesn't exactly contribute to a pleasant or clean environment either. We ended up leaving early and were honestly just glad to leave this site behind. It's particularly disappointing because we've often stayed at other Valamar campsites, such as Lanterna or Istra Premium. Everything was perfect there: clean, modern, well organized - and above all, the children were totally happy there. So it's all the more incomprehensible that this campsite is in such a state. The slides are also a disaster. They look extremely old, rusty and dangerous. It is also said that bad accidents have already happened there. Our children were not allowed to slide there under any circumstances because it looked far too risky at first glance. The price is simply not justified for such a condition - a lot of money for very little quality. That's really the most annoying thing about the whole thing. The island of Rab itself is beautiful. If this campsite was renovated and modernized like Lanterna or Istra, we would definitely come back. You could really make something great out of this place. But individual renovations, like just the wash houses, are not nearly enough. Everything here simply needs to be redone. Dear Valamar management, please invest in this place and make something beautiful out of it. The potential is there - but at the moment this campsite simply cannot be recommended

Ich war mit meiner Familie auf dem Campingplatz San Marino in Lopar und muss ehrlich sagen: Das war mit Abstand der schlimmste Campingurlaub, den wir je erlebt haben. Der gesamte Campingplatz wirkt total veraltet, verwahrlost und völlig ungeordnet. Alles steht kreuz und quer, nichts macht einen gepflegten oder durchdachten Eindruck. Die Waschhäuser sind einfach nur ekelig – alt, abgenutzt und unhygienisch. Bei den Duschen kommt kaum Wasser, und wenn doch, dann ist es eiskalt. Entspannung oder Komfort sind hier absolut Fehlanzeige. Überall liegt Müll herum, egal wohin man schaut. Was den Aufenthalt zusätzlich unerträglich gemacht hat, war der ständige Lärm. Bis spät in die Nacht ist am ganzen Campingplatz extrem viel los. Laute Musik von anderen Campern, keine Rücksicht, keine Nachtruhe – und weit und breit keine Security, die das Ganze unterbindet. An Schlaf war kaum zu denken. Unsere Kinder wollten schon am ersten Tag wieder abreisen. Sie haben geweint, weil es ihnen dort überhaupt nicht gefallen hat – und das ist uns bei noch keinem einzigen Urlaub zuvor passiert. Wirklich nur dort. Das hat uns als Eltern sehr getroffen. Dazu kommt, dass Hunde überall bei den Stellplätzen in den Sand gepinkelt haben. Auch das trägt nicht gerade zu einem angenehmen oder sauberen Umfeld bei. Wir sind schließlich früher abgereist und waren ehrlich gesagt einfach nur froh, diesen Platz hinter uns zu lassen. Besonders enttäuschend ist das alles, weil wir schon öfter auf anderen Valamar Campingplätzen waren, wie Lanterna oder Istra Premium. Dort war alles perfekt: sauber, modern, gut organisiert – und vor allem haben sich die Kinder dort total wohlgefühlt. Umso unverständlicher ist es, dass dieser Campingplatz in so einem Zustand ist. Die Rutschen sind ebenfalls eine Katastrophe. Sie wirken extrem alt, verrostet und gefährlich. Man hört auch, dass dort bereits schlimme Unfälle passiert sein sollen. Unsere Kinder durften dort auf keinen Fall rutschen, weil es schon auf den ersten Blick viel zu riskant aussah. Für so einen Zustand ist der Preis einfach nicht gerechtfertigt – viel Geld für sehr wenig Qualität. Das ist wirklich das Ärgerlichste an der ganzen Sache. Dabei ist die Insel Rab an sich wunderschön. Wenn dieser Campingplatz einmal so renoviert und modernisiert wird wie Lanterna oder Istra, würden wir definitiv wiederkommen. Man könnte aus diesem Platz wirklich etwas Tolles machen. Aber einzelne Renovierungen, wie nur die Waschhäuser, reichen bei weitem nicht aus. Hier gehört einfach alles neu gemacht. Liebe Valamar Geschäftsleitung, bitte investiert in diesen Platz und macht etwas Schönes daraus. Das Potenzial ist da – aber aktuell ist dieser Campingplatz einfach nicht zu empfehlen

Super great burger for 8 € next year the Euro will be introduced let's see how expensive it is then. It's a pity kuna, the local currency, is always better than the euro. Burger absolutely recommended

A very nicely located campsite in a bay . Sanitary facilities are clean . In the front row you stand in the sand and directly on the beach promenade. Dogs are allowed here. There is an extra dog beach. Outside the area (beach promenade) there are many activities for children (small carousel park). Everything is a short walk away. Beach promenade clean and water about 500 meters very shallow so that it is ideal for children. Playground equipment on the beach and in the water. Restaurant and small grocery store, as well as a fruit and vegetable garden. Outside the campsite there is also a large grocery store (within easy walking distance). With a small train (price per head 2€) you can quickly get to the city center
