IČIĆI

Ičići is a small seaside resort with around 800 residents, situated on the northern Adriatic, in Kvarner Bay, 5 km from Opatija and 15 km from Rijeka. It lies at the foot of Učka, a mountain rising to 1,401 m, whose surrounding landscape has been designated a nature park for its distinctive character and natural beauty.

The local population works primarily in tourism and hospitality. Thanks to its favourable location, Ičići has developed into a resort offering:

• A wide choice of restaurants and other hospitality venues.
• Opportunities to enjoy a variety of sports.
• Excursions.
• Nightlife.

The village enjoys beautiful views of Croatia's two largest islands, Krk and Cres, both of which can be visited by boat. Ičići is particularly well known for its exceptionally well-equipped ACI Marina. Accommodation in hotels, apartments and a campsite, alongside recreational facilities and activities including tennis courts, water sports and sailing, has helped nautical tourism flourish. The Ičići campsite is close to the beach and a short distance from the tennis courts.

On the route from Ičići to Učka lies the small medieval town of Veprinac, which has its own legal code dating from 1500.

The main attraction in Ičići is the beach in the heart of the village, with both concrete and sandy sections. Annual investment in its upkeep and improvement has helped it regularly earn the Blue Flag award. Access is free and open to everyone.

The beach is bordered by the marina on one side and a smaller harbour on the other. The harbour dates back to the founding of Ičići and has developed alongside the village. It accommodates smaller boats and reflects the village's maritime character.

The famous Lungomare, a coastal promenade built by the Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph I in 1885, passes through Ičići. This beautifully maintained promenade stretches for 12 km from Volosko to Lovran, with Ičići almost halfway along. Subtle lighting makes it an inviting setting for romantic evening walks. Intercity and local bus services connect the village with neighbouring towns and villages.

During the summer months, coastal towns and villages host the popular fishermen's festivals. These are also held in Ičići, with posters displayed throughout the village to notify residents and visitors several days in advance.
