Rich in history and shaped by centuries of cultural influences, Istria is a blend of Mediterranean, Italian, and Slavic heritage, giving it an intriguing and distinctive character. This picturesque region, once a hidden gem, is rapidly gaining popularity among travellers, yet it still maintains its authentic, rustic charm.

Add to that the region’s renowned cuisine, rich with fresh seafood, truffles, and fine wines, and it’s easy to see why Istria is fast becoming one of the Adriatic’s must-visit destinations.
Only rivalled by Italy in terms of wine quality, Istria’s vineyards produce some of the most sought-after wines not just in Croatia, but across the globe.

Sample the produce from renowned vineyards set in some of the most scenic spots imaginable, or bring a bottle back to your villa and enjoy a perfect pairing of exceptional wine with some of the finest food in Istria.
For those feeling adventurous, Istria’s Natural Parks are ideal for a bit of exploration along the miles of winding hiking trails that weave through some of the region’s most stunning landscapes. From the breathtaking Brijuni National Park, which spans a 14-island archipelago, to the more traditional parks of Rt Kamenjak and Škarline, the opportunities for adventure are endless. Be sure to take a trip to the incredible Cingarela cave and waterfall - a relaxed hike with a rewarding view waiting at the end.
Set sail on the Adriatic for a maritime adventure to the islands just off the coast of Istria. Whether you're after a laidback escape to a rocky beach on a quiet island off the west coast, or prefer the thrill of island hopping through Brijuni National Park, there's something for every kind of explorer.
And if the Italian influences in Istria leave you wanting more, why not treat yourself to a day trip across the water? With boat tours running daily, you can visit Venice whenever it suits you, without splashing out on an overnight stay in the iconic, near-sunken city.
