Rijeka Boat Show

This year Rijeka Boat Show marks 40 years of tradition that unites lovers of the sea and nautical tourism.

As usual at Gat Karoline Rijeka it ill be open until Sunday. Over a hundred exhibitors of vessels and various nautical equipment are present, and as many as six vessels have their Croatian premieres in Rijeka, so nautical enthusiasts will be able to view the latest models of top vessels. Under the motto "The city is a port, the port is a city", this year's 40th Rijeka Boat Show will present visitors with a number of attractive exhibitors, including well-known brands from the world of nautical, Croatian small shipbuilding and related equipment. The Nautical Fair in Rijeka is the oldest fair of its kind in this area. Since 1984, the Nautica fair has been a reference point in the former state for the entire small shipbuilding business and the presentation of vessels and accompanying facilities. In 2013, the fair was renamed the Rijeka Nautic Show, and in 2019 the new organization redesigned the name, but also modernized the entire concept of the fair according to the latest standards, and since then this nautical event is held under its current name - Rijeka Boat Show. 

During the four fair days Rijeka Boat Show will provide visitors with many attractive surprises, and exhibitors the opportunity to promote and sell boats and nautical equipment. This fair managed to turn part of the passenger port into a meeting place for businessmen, manufacturers of nautical equipment and vessels, and we support activities that encourage development in this area.

This year's Boat Show has the first world premiere coming from Croatia, more precisely from the island of Rab. The boat Sampa 8 HD will be presented, 7.5 meters long, 2.80 wide, which was made for economic and commercial purposes, for the transport of passengers.

The Rijeka Boat Show will soon be a strong and relevant nautical fair, and the city of Rijeka will once again become what it has always been, the "First Sea" for most of Europe.
