Perched on a peninsula along the Adriatic, Rovinj is a charming blend of historic allure and vibrant coastal life. Once a fortified island, its enchanting old town is now connected to the mainland and defined by narrow, winding alleys, pastel Venetian-style buildings, and a picturesque waterfront dotted with fishing and sailboats.
At the heart of town rises the Church of St. Euphemia, its slender bell tower offering panoramic views that stretch across red-tiled rooftops to the shimmering sea . Nearby, the Batana Ecomuseum preserves Rovinj’s maritime legacy with traditional wooden boats and engaging workshops .
Rovinj is also a gateway to the Istrian coast: a cluster of smaller islands lies just offshore, pine-shaded promenades invite sunset strolls, and high-quality seafood restaurants line the harbor.

UMAG
Though its roots go back to ancient times, Umag is best known for its preserved medieval charm. Traces of its past can be seen in the old city walls, narrow stone streets, and elegant Venetian villas. The historic Old Town, once an island, became connected to the mainland in the 10th century when city walls and a drawbridge were built. The best-preserved structure is the West Tower, now home to the Umag City Museum.
At the town’s center lies a lively square with the Church of the Assumption of Mary, a peaceful spot surrounded by history. Just outside Umag, in Savudrija, stands Croatia’s oldest lighthouse, built in 1818. Legend has it that an Austrian count had it constructed for a Croatian woman he fell in love with, though she sadly never saw it.
Umag also hosts a variety of events throughout the year. Sole Fish Days celebrate local cuisine each autumn with four-course menus in select restaurants, paired with Istrian wine and olive oil. In October, Welldayspromote wellness through hotel spa packages, offering a relaxing off-season getaway.
