Overview
About Istria
Istria is Croatia's most Italian-feeling corner: pastel harbours, olive groves and hill towns wrapped in medieval walls, plus some of the world's finest truffles hidden in its inland oak forests. The coast is a string of Venetian ports — Poreč, Rovinj, Piran-facing Umag — while the interior hides Motovun, Grožnjan and countless empty valleys.
