Kvarner

Kvarner is a bay in the northern Adriatic between the Istrian peninsula and the Croatian mainland. Its largest islands are Cres, Krk, Pag, Rab and Lošinj, and its depth allows the port of Rijeka at its northern end to receive large ships.

The lakes include Vransko jezero on Cres, which supplies Cres and Lošinj with water, Ponikve on Krk, and the Gorski Kotar reservoirs Lokve, Lepenica and Bajer.
