He&#8217;s peering over the roofs of other vans to see the sea on the terraced pitches of Camping Krk, near Krk town, on the island of &#8230;. Krk (N45.02140, E14.59250). After half a glass of <em>pivo,<\/em> Jay&#8217;s started calling himself Captain Krk. We don&#8217;t think we could be more Krky.<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday morning Jay was woken by the heat of the sun on his back through the windscreen, the rain of the previous day had given up and normal sunny service was resumed. We packed up and hit the road to make the one hour drive north to the island of Krk. Soon we could see Krk bridge stretching across the blue waters below us, and as with all bridges (in my opinion) it looked much better from afar than when you are on it.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-21033 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC00172-1024x510-1024x510.jpg\" alt=\"Krk Bridge, Croatia\" width=\"620\" height=\"309\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC00172-1024x510.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC00172-1024x510-300x149.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC00172-1024x510-768x383.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_21028\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21028\" class=\"wp-image-21028 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC00177-1024x712-1024x712.jpg\" alt=\"Krk bridge toll charges, Croatia\" width=\"620\" height=\"431\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC00177-1024x712.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC00177-1024x712-300x209.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC00177-1024x712-768x534.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-21028\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Zagan is category 2 &#8211; 46kn, which is around \u00a34.60.

But all of them were chilled out, relaxing places you could spend at least a few weeks on, doing nothing. The vista that greeted us as we drove onto Krk was one of trees, lots of trees, trees as far as the eye could see, which is not surprising as Krk is the largest island in the Adriatic.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-21030 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC00185-1024x512-1024x512.jpg\" alt=\"Road on Krk Island, Croatia\" width=\"620\" height=\"310\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC00185-1024x512.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC00185-1024x512-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC00185-1024x512-768x384.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We pulled in and did a quick stock up at a Konzum supermarket (we&#8217;d already checked, no Lidl&#8217;s on Krk!). A\u00a0huge advertising board told us it was the newest supermarket on the island. What we didn&#8217;t realise was there are several other ones by Krk town, but still we had a nice half an hour wandering around looking at cheap beer, wine and of course the food.<\/p>\n<p>Back on the road and we were soon in Krk town, stopping off at\u00a0the campsite closest to the town itself. We didn&#8217;t stop for long though when the receptionist revealed the price to be around \u20ac33 a night (\u20ac3.60 of those were for Charlie!). Wanting to be close to the sea so Jay can take advantage of snorkeling opportunities we headed around the bay to Camping Krk. Fortunately Liz and Phil had given us their 2016 ASCI books as in 2015 this was place a naturist campsite. This year it has undergone a rebrand, new name, new flash bungalows, new pool and, most importantly for us, now requires clothes.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_21031\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21031\" class=\"wp-image-21031 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC00187-1024x768-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"FKK Naturalist beach rules, Croatia\" width=\"620\" height=\"465\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC00187-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC00187-1024x768-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC00187-1024x768-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC00187-1024x768-174x131.jpg 174w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/DSC00187-1024x768-70x53.jpg 70w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-21031\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Still a small FKK\/Naturalist beach here but it&#8217;s empty at the moment, perhaps it&#8217;s still too chilly<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The rest of the day was spent relaxing on our little piece of paradise, buying some lower chocks (which hopefully won&#8217;t hit the front of Zagan when we use them) from a fellow camper who was having a clear out, and consuming the best of the supermarket treats we&#8217;d bought.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_21035\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21035\" class=\"wp-image-21035 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/doombar.jpg\" alt=\"Doom Bar Beer in Croatia\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/doombar.jpg 600w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/doombar-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-21035\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cornwall beer, Doom Bar, in Croatia, only \u00a31.40 a bottle, we may have to stay!<\/p><\/div>\n<p>This morning when the alarm went off at 8.30am I was up and at &#8217;em.
