whole series of smaller islands makes part of the island
of Rab, as well as the 27 cliffs and reefs surrounding
it. To the extreme south of the "Podvelebitski kanal" (the
Podvelebit channel) lies the small island Misnjak,
and somewhat to the north the island Lukovac. The
uninhabited island Dolin which on the western side
stands athwarth between the southern part of the island
of Rab and Pag in the "Paski kanal " (the Pag
Channel) creates a lie in the "Barbatski kanal " (Barbat
channel), appropriate for sailing and water sports.

The
so called "Rapska vrata" (Rab narrows), leading
form the Pag Channel to the "Uvala s. Eufemije" (St.
Euphemia's bay) and the town port, extend from the north
cape Dolina to the peninsula Frkanj on the western side
of the island, vis-a-vis the town of Rab. Here, in front
of the first of three marvellous coves which the islanders
call Prva, Druga i Treca Padova (the First, Second and
Third Padova) there is a green ornament in the azure blueness
- the island of St. Juraj. Further on, in the open sea,
in the sea area called Kvarneric, near the cape Lun on
the island of Pag, there are some other nice small islands,
rich in undersea flora and fauna: Veli and Mali
Laganj, Trstenik, Mazunel and Veli and Mali
Dolfin.

side of which lies the island Boljkovac, and then till

jewels: the small islands Maman, Sailovac and Sridnjak.

narrows), close to the island Prvic, the big uninhabited
island Grgur in the Podvelebit Channel, lies Goli
otok. All these island complement the beauty and uniqueness
of the main island, Rab.
