The city of Rijeka is the third largest city in Croatia and also the largest Croatian port. In Roman times at the mouth of the river Rječina, the first settlements are built and the city slowly gets its outline. The most famous street in Rijeka is Korzo. Since the early 19th century, this street has become the main street of the town and the majority of its urban life takes place here. By the end of the 18th century, on the place where this street was, there was a pebble sea coast, a shipyard and a town loggia.

Although Rijeka is not a typical tourist destination with vast beaches full of sun loungers and umbrellas, there are still very beautiful beaches where you can look for refreshments in the hot summer months. One of the most beautiful beaches in Rijeka is the beach Ploče. In the Kantrida football stadium, there is a newly renovated dog beach and Rijeka is standing next to other "dog friendly" destinations.
Beach Kostanj is the first beach in Croatia specially equipped for people with disabilities. It is also one of the most well-equipped beaches in the Mediterranean for people with disabilities. This beach is carrier of a blue flag. Considering that Rijeka is a large port city, is surprising the high purity of the sea on the beaches north of the center of Rijeka.
