Rab is a Croatian island off the northern Croatian coast in the Adriatic Sea, located in the northern Dalmatia area. The island is 22 kilometers long, 93.6 kilometers wide, and has a population of 9,328 people. The namesake town of Rab is the principal community on the island, however, the nearby village of Palit has the largest population. Kamenjak, at 408 meters, is the highest mountain. The island's northeastern half is primarily karst, while the southwestern part is home to one of the Mediterranean's remaining oak woods.The skyline is dominated by the four campaniles. It's lush and sunny, with a few lovely villages, protected waterways, and some of Croatia's greatest sandy beaches, so coming's no surprise that the Italians love it here. It was known to the Romans as felix arba, or "the pleasant island."
