It is sheltered from the cold by Velebit, a mainland mountain belonging to the Dinara massif, which ensures that the influx of fresh and clean continental air reaches Rab at pleasant Mediterranean temperature. The average annual temperature varies between 7 °C in winter and 26 °C in summer, remaining above 18 °C for more than 140 days a year. Summer months are rendered more pleasant by a mild landward breeze, maestral, while winters are chilly and dry owing to the seaward northeastern wind bora. The shores of the island are lapped by crystal-clear and clean sea brought by the constant northbound stream coming from the ecologically clean Mediterranean. The average temperature of the sea around the island is 24 °C in summer and 12 °C in winter. Along the northeastern coast of the island, resembling a high stone wall, stretches the towering hill Kamenjak; it protects the rest of the island from the direct influence of harsh continental air and allows it to bask in the warm Mediterranean sun that shines on Rab for over 2470 hours a year. The best connection between the island and the mainland is by the ferries of the Rapska Plovidba d.d., a small local shipping company, that operate between the mainland Jablanac and Mišnjak on the southern coast of the island. The crossing takes 12 minutes only and it is ensured throughout the year. During summer months, another ferry service is available - the one between Lopa on the northern shore of the island and Baska on the island of Krk, lying to the north of it; the journey takes about an hour.
