January and February on the Opatija Riviera

With the hectic pace of life, we would all like to find a small oasis of peace where we can escape for a while and charge our batteries. One such place is the Opatija Riviera, a destination that is usually associated with summer, warm weather, sunny beaches and good time at sea. However, the Opatija Riviera has much to offer in winter months too, which makes it the ideal destination for a family, romantic or activity holidays.

Valentine's Day in romantic Opatija

Would you like to spend the most romantic Valentine's ever? Come with your loved one to romantic Opatija! The tradition of celebrating Valentine's Day goes back to Ancient Rome. It recalls the young priest Valentine who sacrificed himself to celebrate love. He was executed on 14 February, the date that is today remembered as Valentine's Day.

Make this Valentine's truly special and invite your significant other to a enjoy a romantic experience in Opatija.

Carnival in Kvarner

Carnival is definitely the most colourful time of year on the Opatija Riviera. It is the period of funny masks and happy smiling faces. The carnival on the Opatija Riviera traditionally begins by hanging the pust, a carnival puppet that is blamed for everything that went wrong in the previous year. This year this was performed on Saturday 17 January, which marked the beginning of carnival in Opatija and neighbouring places. For the next month, the Opatija Riviera will be the venue of numerous costumed parties and masked balls. Put on a mask, become somebody else and have fun with us!
