Rovinj

When to go

Late spring and early autumn are ideal for walks and the sea. Rovinj is very popular in summer.

Things to see and do

Walk through the old town, climb to the Church of St Euphemia, visit the harbour and beaches, and take a boat trip along the coast.

Practical tips

The old town has many steep, smooth stone streets. It is best to leave your car outside the historic centre.

Getting there and getting around

Rovinj is easy to reach by car or bus from Pula, Poreč and other places in Istria.

Where to stay

Old-town apartments suit an atmospheric stay. Areas outside the centre are more practical for beaches and parking.

What to try

Typical food includes Istrian truffles, fresh fish, seafood, fuži pasta, olive oil and regional wine.
