The statue of the fisherman on the coast is one of the most recognizable symbols of Njivica on the island of Krk. Njivice is a tourist destination that does not have a rich history, but in the past this place was a fishing village. In honor of fishing, a popular fisherman statue stands on the main shore of Njivica. The sculpture commemorates part of the history of this area and underlines the importance of fishing - as one of the main activities of the local population.

Beautiful if not the most beautiful place to enjoy the sunset. In Bašca etc. you don't see him. In the evening you can see the lights of Opatija. We found it cheaper than in the town of Krk or in Baška, at least what we consumed in the way of drinks and ice cream.
