ISTRIA – PEARL OF THE ADRIATIC

Nestled in the curve of the Adriatic coastline lies Istria, the most widely developed tourist area in Croatia. As the largest peninsula of the Croatian Adriatic, it represents the geographical junction between the Mediterranean area and southern Central Europe. With its forest-covered Ucka Mountains (elevation 1396 meters), its hills, valleys, and small cities, this varied landscape is beyond compare.  Standing side-by-side, the Roman amphitheater and Arch of Triumph exist in perfect unison with basilica and lovely frescos of the Middle Ages.  Quaint stone villages exist harmoniously amidst modern tourist centers whose broad palette of leisure-time activities and attractions will please the most discriminating visitor.

The Istrian coast affords the visitor a diverse and multifaceted choice of pleasures: easy to reach coves, picturesque islands, and, of course, pristine water. Whether a romantic, craggy, rocky coast or a quiet beach of fine white stones, there is something to please everyone. The temperate water, which varies from 23 to 27 degrees celsius in the summer months, makes swimming very pleasant from May until the end of September.

Also, those looking for a break from winter will find the mild, snow-free climate and abundant vegetation that defines the superb landscape of Istria, unrivaled on the whole of the Adriatic, an alternative worthy of the experience.
