Beautiful fishing village

When I start to miss Croatia, all I have to do is imagine Dubrovnik , to Hvar , Split ... and of course the unforgettable Rovinj. This fishing village is on the Istrian Peninsula, overlooking the Adriatic. Istria was Italian for centuries, hence in Rovinj, people speak Croatian and eat delicious Italian pasta, but the street names are written in both languages.


Rovinj is located in an isthmus that was once island, so their coasts are different. It has a quiet bay with fisherman's houses and a protected harbor full of colorful boats, and a high point of rocks that meet the sea. Rovinj feels like a sailors place, and there is an old bohemian vibe, and many painters and artists become enamored of the beauty of the place, and move there .

I won't even mention all of the the corners that Rovinj has for sunbathing and swimming . But you do need to rent a bike for a while and pedal along a track lined with pines. Then just choose which place you prefer to lie in the sun. There is no sand, but the stones are very large and smooth functioning as spectacular loungers. From there you jump to the sea. Bathing in the warm, clear Adriatic, diving and swimming, it is amazing.

You are said to be the most beautiful...

Di lei si dice che sia la più bella città costiera istriana, un luogo dove l'antica attività dei pescatori si mischia alla nuova vocazione turistica dei croati. Osservandola da lontano vi colpiranno subito i suoi colori... L'azzurro del mare, il bianco della pietra d'Istria e delle numerose barche ancorate nel porto, le mille tinte delle case che vi si affacciano. Ma una volta entrati nel suo centro storico sarete davvero catturati da mille altre suggestioni. La mia impressione è stata quella di una città indubbiamente turistica ma allo stesso tempo a misura d'uomo! A Rovigno troverete decine e decine di negozi, locali e ristoranti, oltre che numerose possibilità di escursioni organizzate, ma non avrete mai l'impressione di essere lontani dalla realtà quotiodiana dei suoi abitanti.
You are said to be the most beautiful coastal city of Istria, a place where the ancient fishermen's activities is mixed to the new tourist destination of Croats. Watching from afar will soon hit its colors ... The blue sea, the white Istrian stone and the many boats anchored in the harbor, the thousand colors of the houses that surround it. But once in the old town you will truly be captured by a thousand other suggestions. My impression was that of a city undoubtedly touristy but at the same time on a human! In Rovinj you will find dozens and dozens of shops, bars and restaurants as well as numerous possibilities for excursions, but you will never have the impression of being far from reality quotiodiana of its inhabitants.

Rovinj est un joli port de pêche sur la ...

Rovinj est un joli port de pêche sur la côte d´Istrie, au nord de la Croatie. Il est vraiment touristique et il y a beaucoup de monde, surtout des italiens en croisière le long de la côte, mais c´est aussi un adorable port de pêche avec beaucoup de charme. Sur le port on trouve des gens du coin, qui reviennent de la pêche ou d´une sortie baignade avec leurs petites embarcations. On peut acheter du poisson frais tôt le matin avant que les restos ne se l´approprient. Durant la journée, la ville devenue bien trop chaude se vide et on va se baigner le long de la côte, avant d´y retourner le soir, pour diner en terrasse ou voir le coucher de soleil du haut de la superbe cathédrale de Sainte Eufemia qui domine la ville. La cathédrale est le point culminant et de celle-ci on peut partir se perdre dans les rues qui serpentent tout autour. Les maisons colorées, la vie qui reprend une fois le soleil parti, rendent cet endroit super sympa.
Rovinj is a beautiful fishing port on the coast of Istria, northern Croatia. It is really touristy and there are many people, especially the Italian cruise along the coast, but it is also a lovely fishing port with lots of charm. In the port there are locals returning from fishing or swimming out with their small boats. You can buy fresh fish early in the morning before the restaurants do it their own. During the day, the city became too hot to empty and we will swim along the coast, before returning in the evening to dine on the terrace or watch the sunset from the top of the magnificent Cathedral of St. Eufemia overlooking the city. The cathedral is the highest point and it can be from getting lost in the winding streets around. The colorful houses, the life resumes once the sun gone, make this place great fun.

Flâner au milieu est des ruelles médiévales de Rovinj a été pour moi un réel plaisir lors de mon voyage en Croatie. La ville se trouve à quelques kilomètres de la fameuse capitale de l'Istrie - Pula. (compter environ 40km) Rovinj était autrefois un village de pèche mais aujourd'hui elle fait partie de ces destinations balnéaires de la méditerranée et à su garder son charme et son caractère. Depuis l'Eglise vous pourrez profiter d'une vue magnifique sur la mer et ses îles au large.
Strolling in the middle is the medieval streets of Rovinj was a real pleasure for me during my trip to Croatia. The city lies a few kilometers from the famous capital of Istria - Pula. (Approximately 40km) Rovinj was once a fishing village but today it is one of the seaside resorts of the Mediterranean and kept its charm and character. Since the church you can enjoy a magnificent view of the sea and offshore islands.

Rovinj, my favorite destination in Istria

Rovinj, mi destino preferido en Istria

Rovinj (Croacia) es posiblemente el destino turístico más interesante de la península de Istria. Se trata de una ciudad pintoresca, de calles adoquinadas y puerto pesquero muy activo. La iglesia de Santa Eufemia es su edificio más singular, domina el casco urbano desde sus 57 m de altura, y está considerado el edificio barroco más grande de Istria.
Rovinj (Croatia) is possibly the most interesting tourist destination Istria peninsula. It is a quaint, cobbled streets and very active fishing port. The church of Santa Eufemia is its most unique building, dominates the town from its 57 m high, and is considered the largest baroque building in Istria.
