Eurotrip 6, 2017 – Goodbye Nin, Hello Krk…

Standard

Today (Monday) we had a relaxing day. Some work to catch up on in the morning and then a dip in the sea late afternoon. In the evening it’s a short walk into the town of Krk and we ate dinner at Restaurant Frankopan. Food was good and a great location just below the tower in the old town. A few pictures below:

Sunday we hit the road for a 200 mile journey to Krk (160 miles if we’d taken a mixture of motorway and coastal route). We chose the longer route which was mainly motorway but the section from the exit at Ostravica down to the coast (D501) was a little narrow and twisty.

Our preferred site was Camping Krk but we’d already been told this was fully booked so our next preference was Camping Jezevac and we’d reserved a pitch for 5 nights. We quite fancied Camping Bor, as this site is a smaller family run operation and we had been given some good recommendations. In the end and for this part of our trip, we actually wanted to be close to the sea but we almost ended up moving to Camping Bor.

Our pre-allocated pitch was a nightmare. Firstly the route up to it turned out to be stone steps, and when we finally found a road, I can only describe the location as poor. Extremely poor. Tiny pitch, no view, right beside a permanent caravan with a great big plastic windshield running all along the back. No room for the car, so we headed back to reception, having to detach and motor move the van on one occasion.

By now we were ready to move on to Bor when miraculously reception managed to find an alternative pitch – we decided to give it one more try. This time the pitch is great. Decent size, fully serviced and distant views over the ocean.
