Krk se prodaje kao raj za bicikliste
Krk is promoted as a paradise for cyclists, but islanders increasingly see them as a traffic problem
The island of Krk is increasingly being presented as a destination for cyclists, but the reality on the ground is much harsher. There are far too few proper cycling paths, traffic is already overloaded, and cyclists, especially groups of recreational riders and the growing number of e-bike users, end up on the same narrow roads that islanders use every day to get to work, the shop, the ferry, school, the clinic or their apartments.

Is the 2026 season slower, or have the rules of the game simply changed?

A mandatory registration number for accommodation units is being introduced, what does this mean for accommodation owners?
In recent months, information about the so called “OIB for apartments” has been appearing more and more frequently. Although the name sounds dramatic, it actually refers to the introduction of a mandatory registration number for each accommodation unit, which will become a requirement for legally advertising accommodation in Croatia. The goal of this change is not to place additional burdens on accommodation owners, but to introduce order and clear records into a system that has been insufficiently connected for years.
