Ravni lies below the eastern slopes of Skitača. Across the Vela vrata strait, the view stretches towards Rijeka and the island of Cres. Along the coast, you’ll find beach areas, a rocky snorkeling spot, and opportunities for surfing and diving.

Beaches and Paths by the Water

A road runs through Ravni to the beaches. Above the small harbor, there is a parking lot that connects to a promenade. Along the promenade are paved sunbathing areas, small pebble beaches, a larger pebble beach, and a dog beach. Facilities may change, so check their condition before visiting.

On the rocky coast, there is a snorkeling spot with a rocky seabed, sandy underwater channels, and a submerged ledge at a depth of about four meters. When the winds are right, Ravni is associated with surfing, and it attracts divers because of its clean, deep sea. Wind and sea conditions can vary; check them if your trip depends on surfing or diving.

The Bella Vista route through the Skitača area follows a road down to Ravni. There, you can swim, relax on the beaches, or watch surfers. If you plan to walk the route, check the trail conditions locally. This gives you the choice of beach stays, water activities, and a route through the area.

Within the wider destination of Općina Raša, the town of Raša offers a distinct cultural and historical focus. Raša was built between 1936 and 1937 as a planned mining town, based on designs by architect Gustavo Pulitzer Finali. The Raša mine employed more than 10,000 miners from 1928 to 1966.
