Rab island Croatia - Goli otok (‘Naked Island’)

Rab island Croatia - Goli otok (‘Naked Island’)

This only Croatian Gulag is located in the sub-mountainous channel near Senj, about 6 kilometers from the coast and 5 kilometers north of the island of Rab. A powerful and very common wind bora that blows salty mist on this small island of only 4.5 square miles, has made the soil infertile to any plant life, and therefore the island was named Goli. Today, the only inhabitants are sheep that can be found amongst ruinous buildings that still remind people of the famous days of the most notorious prison in the Balkans.
