The ferryboat that operates on the line between Šilo and Crikvenica is in the vicinity.
This place was inhabited since prehistoric times. In the Middle Ages, Vrbnik was a fortress of the Frankopan family, with a statute written in the Glagolitic script, from 1388. The remains of the medieval defense wall with towers are still visible. The parish church is from the 15th - 16th century.
