Opatija is the town of elegant Austro-Hungarian villas and luxury hotels on the coast of the crystal clear blue Adriatic Sea. It is surrounded by exotic trees and plants.
Since the middle of the 19th century Opatija was known as an peaceful oasis beauty with great potential for recreation and leisure tourism.
There is a beautiful 12-kilometer-long promenade by the sea connecting Opatija with other tourist destinations of Opatija Riviera: Volosko, Icici, Ikoyi, Lovran.
