Lopar
No matter where you are staying on the Rab island, one thing is certain: the path will definitely take you to the north side of the island, to the Lopar village and its famous sand beaches. The most famous one is the Paradise Beach that is 1.5 km long and was listed among CNN's top 100 world beaches. Those who appreciate some privacy should walk a bit further until they reach the Sahara, Ciganka and Stolac beaches, which turn into nude beaches during the summer.
