Off The Beaten Path: Desert behind luscious forests
  • Tip Rating:
  • At the eastern tip of Rab you can see how strong the power of Bura wind is in this area - blowing in gushes from those high mountains overlooking the sea, it brings salty mist that prevents plants from growing along Rab’s northern side.
    On the picture you can see a few plants growing on the left side, in slightly sheltered areas, but further to the right, foliage disappears, and behind the tip there is a rocky desert - amazing clean wind swept shoreline.
    Not very popular among sailors. But great for a hiking adventure - only if the weather is fine. No plants = no shade = long sleeves, hat, plenty of water and high UV protection.

     On your Rab restaurant recommendations: - Paradiso is higly overpriced. Wines, location, interiors good but food can be much better for what they charge for. - Kordic family "Hummerstation" does not have that restaurant any longer.

     No, it's the same Rab!Just seen from another point of view. We spent most of or time in the "jungle" and we don't eat out. For me, Rab is where my heart is, like my second home, and I don't see it from the tourist point of view anymore. LP :-)))
