About Krk/Dobrinj
Dobrinj is a small village on the north-east side of the island of Krk, about 200 metres above Soline Bay. Fewer than a hundred people live in the village, so evenings are quiet. The wider municipality has about twenty settlements, with Šilo the largest and the main tourist destination. The coast is cut into inlets with reefs and cliffs, and Soline is a shallow bay with a pebble beach, a concrete section and a large car park beside it. The homes are spread over a few kilometres around the village, most with a private pool, and some have a sauna.

Krk/Dobrinj villa holidays: questions answered
Is Dobrinj on the beach?
No. The village sits about 200 metres above Soline Bay, so the sea is down the hill rather than at the door. Plan on driving, or on a downhill walk there and a climb back.
What is the beach below Dobrinj like?
Soline is a shallow bay with a pebble beach that has a concrete section, and a large car park next to it. It suits families with children, though pebbles rather than sand are underfoot.
Can strong wind cut off Dobrinj from the mainland?
Sometimes. Strong bora winds often close the Krk Bridge to certain vehicles and occasionally to all traffic, and the bridge carries the road from Krk to the mainland. Leave slack on arrival and departure days.
Is there anything to visit near Dobrinj?
Yes. Biserujka Cave is a few kilometres north near Rudine, Soline Bay was the site of medieval saltworks, and Vrbnik, on a limestone outcrop above the sea, is known for Žlahtina wine.
