ISTRIA

ISTRIA is the largest CROATIAN peninsula and is located on the northern part of the ADRIATIC SEA.

It is also the most developed tourist region of CROATIA, with tourism developing rapidly in all directions. It offers charming coastal towns, tame interior (Croatia’s Toskana) and a culinary tradition of healthy eating.The main town of ISTRIA is PULA, located in the south of the peninsula.
Numerous bays in the immediate vicinity of the city have long been a safe haven for ships, so PULA has historically been of great military strategic significance.

From PULA you can go to KVARNER or north to the ISTRIAN coastal towns such of ROVINJ, POREČ, NOVIGRAD and UMAG where you can enjoy local charms. See Routes ….
