Stara Baška is a village located on the far southwest of the island of Krk. It is located just 8 km from Punat, 45 km away from Krk Bridge and 70 km from Rijeka. Stara Baška is located in the magnificent bay of the same name and is protected from the gusts of the cold bora wind in winter by hills on one side, and the tiny peninsula of Klobučac on the other.
