The gourmet offer of Krk Island reflects its character – authentic, diverse and deeply connected to local tradition.

Indigenous ingredients, family-run wineries, olive groves and small producers create a gastronomic story that goes beyond tasting and becomes an experience of place and people.

The offer includes carefully selected gourmet tours, wine tastings and local product degustations, as well as shorter and multi-day gourmet programmes.

All experiences are designed to let you discover the flavours of Krk at your own pace – without rush and without tourist clichés.

Wine tastings and Krk wines

Krk is especially appealing to wine lovers thanks to its indigenous grape variety – Žlahtina from Vrbnik.

Vineyards of the Vrbnik Field, located in a protected and fertile area, produce wines with a distinctive character: fresh, elegant and perfectly suited to local cuisine.

The gourmet offer includes wine tastings at family-run wineries, guided degustations and special programmes such as Wine Evenings in Vrbnik, where you explore different styles of Krk wines, their stories and terroir through a carefully curated evening.

Olive oil tastings and olive groves

Olive growing is deeply rooted in the identity of the island. Dry-stone walls, seaside olive groves and centuries-old trees shape both the landscape and the exceptional quality of Krk olive oil.

The offer includes tastings of award-winning local olive oils with expert guidance, as well as visits to olive groves where you learn about varieties, harvesting and production.

For groups, seasonal programmes such as olive picking or traditional cooking in the olive grove can also be arranged.

Krk cheese, prosciutto and traditional cuisine

Krk gastronomy is unthinkable without Krk sheep cheese, one of the island’s most recognisable products.

Visiting a family-run cheese dairy offers insight into traditional production methods and the opportunity to taste cheese directly at its source.

Another symbol of the island is Krk prosciutto, protected by an EU designation, distinguished by drying in the bora wind and seasoning with local aromatic herbs. A visit to a prosciutto producer with tasting reveals the entire process – from raw ingredients to the finished product.

Lovers of traditional pasta can take part in a presentation of šurlice, the island’s traditional handmade pasta, followed by tasting and a story about its role in local cuisine.

Gourmet programmes at your own pace

All gourmet tours and experiences serve as inspiration.

Each programme can be tailored to your interests, time and travel style, combining wine tastings, degustations, cultural sites or natural locations into a balanced gourmet day or short itinerary.
