Nature Park

Istria's wild southern tip is a protected reserve of low juniper scrub, wildflower meadows and endless little limestone coves — 30 kilometres of coastline dotted with hidden swimming spots you reach on foot or bike. Cliff-jumpers gather at the Cove of the Golden Cape, dinosaur footprints stamp the flat rocks at the southernmost point, and the Safari Bar looks like a Robinson Crusoe fantasy. No hotels, no roads — just the sound of cicadas and the Adriatic.
