(Nova) Baška Village; Otok Krk Island, Primorsko-Goranska Županja, Hrvatska

16-January-2025

 

Northeast of Stara (old) Baška, after passing a rocky ridge, the large bay of Baška opens up (without "Nova"/new, it is not used in croatian, only for the old names in Italian it is Bescanuova as opposed to Bescavecchia, precisely Stara Baška) whose over 2 kilometers long gravel beach separates the sea from the lower part of the consistent furrow (draga), first narrow, fluvial, V-shaped, then wide, detrital, U-shaped.

 

Baška is larger than Stara Baška, and more touristy due to the imposing resort that exploits the large white gravel beach.

 

In winter, however, it is very quiet and sparsely inhabited.

 

Unfortunately, (also) this winter does not offer much snow in the Alps (I hate photographing the barren Alps in the middle of winter...) and so I dedicate myself to the winter sea which is always fascinating.
