Mediterranean Paradise with Royal History
Discover the beaches and landmarks around the Queen Beach Resort
The Most Beautiful Sandy Beaches in Croatia
The sandy beaches surrounding the resort are among the longest and most beautiful in all of Croatia. They stretch for 8 km along the shores of a tranquil bay. Renowned for their gentle slope into the sea, the water is crystal clear and pleasantly warm. This is appreciated not only by families with children but also by older visitors. The most famous is Queen's Beach, which is just a 5-minute walk from the apartment. It spans 3 km and was named after the first queen of Croatia. According to legend, she enjoyed the stunning views of the Velebit mountain range, which rises in the distance above the sea, during her regular visits. Today, the beaches also offer a variety of sports activities – kitesurfing is particularly popular.
The Royal Town of Nin in a Romantic Bay
The town of Nin has played a significant role in Croatian history. Its history dates back to the Roman Empire, from which the ruins of the Temple of Diana with a 17-meter high Corinthian column originate. In the Middle Ages, Nin became the first royal town and the seat of the bishop. Near the royal palace, you will find the Church of the Holy Cross from the 9th century – the smallest cathedral in the world. You will also be charmed by the bishop's palace or the Church of St. Anselm. The preserved parts of the massive medieval fortifications also invite you for a stroll. The historic center of the town is located on an islet, which is only 500 meters in diameter and offers beautiful views of the bay.
