Once a fishing town, Rovinj is one of the most beautiful towns in the Adriatic.
Today, it is a tourist resort, accessible by road or boat from Pula, Venice, Ljubjana, Trieste or Zagreb. Rovinj has long been known for its favourable climate and warm sea. So, today its people are still proud of this long tradition and 'fight' for the title of 'healthy town'... The rest is nature’s work.
The entire coastline, with its twenty-two islands is an area of protected natural heritage. Feel the enchantment of the town in its narrow medieval streets and warm Mediterranean setting. The main Church of St. Euphemia keeps relics of the saint and presents one of the most beautiful Baroque achievements in Istria. From the church plateau there is a wonderful view of the open sea and numerous islets in the distance. A visit to the Rovinj Town Museum and the town’s many galleries will complete your cultural experience.
Its surroundings offer immense possibilities for recreation: biking, horseback riding, jogging. But, owing to the sea and what it has to offer, ranging from sailing to discovering the underwater world, its therapeutic properties, today Rovinj is the destination for tourists from all over the world.
