Rijeka by private jet Estimated flight time from Paris : 1h40
Rijeka is a coastal destination where visitors can enjoy crystal-clear waters, lush vegetation, and stunning pebble beaches. The city is also famous for hosting Croatia’s largest and most spectacular carnival.
The Korzo, a pedestrian street in the heart of the city, is the perfect place to start exploring after you land. This bustling shopping avenue is lined with traditional cafés offering local drinks and refined dishes. Not far away, Rijeka’s “Central Market,” or fish market, is a must-see. Built in 1916 on the site of a former neoclassical building, it was renovated using materials like glass and metal, giving it its distinctive look. Next to the main hall are two smaller pavilions selling meat and dairy products, as well as numerous stalls offering fresh fruit, vegetables, and local takeaway dishes.
Culture lovers will enjoy the Rijeka City Museum, which presents exhibitions tracing the city’s history from its origins to the present day. Just outside the city, Trsat Castle stands 140 meters above sea level. Once a strategic defensive stronghold dating back to antiquity, it now hosts art exhibitions, galleries, and concerts. The panoramic view over the Kvarner Gulf from the top is breathtaking.
In Rijeka, opportunities for sports and leisure abound all year round. Hiking enthusiasts will love the Učka Nature Park, with its spectacular mountain trails and scenic lookouts. Nearby, the charming village of Mošćenička Draga offers a relaxing and traditional atmosphere. In winter, the surrounding mountains even offer skiing with a sea view—an experience like no other.
