Rabs capital, Rab Town, is a huddle of medieval stone buildings occupying a slender, fortified peninsular lined with four elegant Romanesque bell towers. The old town hosts rustic taverns and boutiques, with a palm-lined seafront promenade giving onto a marina. Rab was one of Europes first nudist resorts: King Edward VIII apparently bathed naked here in 1936. Some of Croatias best sand beaches lie on Lopar Peninsular, on Rabs northern tip.
