# Krk Fishing Villages and Working Harbors

> Krk's coast is studded with small fishing harbors and working ports, each with its own character, fleet composition, and history. Vrbnik's deep-water bay (Vrbnička luka) and Šilo's east-facing harbor are the classical fishing centers; Punat combines a major modern marina with a traditional shipyard; Baška has a long curving harbor handling both fishing and tourism; Malinska, Njivice, and Krk town round out the inhabited harbor system. Together they form the maritime infrastructure that has supported the island's sea economy for a thousand years.
