Draped over the soft hills that roll down from the Snežnik plateau, Rijeka spills into the Adriatic Sea in a contradictory patchwork of industrial quaysides and grand 1800s boulevards. For most, it's nothing more than a pitstop on the way to the shimmering pebble coves of Krk Island or the olive-dotted shores of wonderful Istria. But that doesn't do it justice…
Linger a little in Rijeka and you can delve into a maze-like centre where there are off-beat historical draws around every bend in the cobbled streets. It's entirely walkable, spreading off the boat-bobbing Mrtvi Kanal to reveal sights like the round Cathedral of St. Vid and the green-roofed City Clock Tower, fusing the Baroque and the imperial in a single structure. High above, Trsat Castle is reached after over 560 steps. If you're up for that, you can scale to one of the oldest citadels on the Kvarner Gulf – it dates back to Roman times!
Private charter flights to Rijeka are also for escaping to a more lived-in corner of Croatia, far from the baying crowds of Dalmatia and Hvar. Here, in the principle commercial port of the country, residents still clink coffees in the street cafes and summer jazz fests are still attended by the locals. On top of that, Istria's wooded eastern coves are less than an hour's transfer away for when a dose of R&R is required.
