Marijana’s Tips for Rovinj and Surroundings
City/town information
Rovinj is an enchanting small town, located on the western coast of the Istrian peninsula. Its narrow, cobbled streets filled with numerous restaurants, cafes, art galleries, and a still-active fishing port give the town that special welcoming and vibrant feeling.
The Church of St. Euphemia, dominates the old town. Inside the church, there is a sarcophagus with the Saint's body and relics. The curious ones can have a look through the small window on the sarcophagus.
In the southern part of the town, dwells the Forest Park Punta Corrente (Golden Cape). It is surrounded by the crystal clear sea on three sides and is teeming with rocky and pebbly beaches.
The lesser-known fact is that the town used to be an island until the narrow channel between the mainland and the island was filled in 1763.

Beaches
Golden Cape (Punta Corrente) is a park/forest only 5 minutes by bike from our apartment. It is home to the most beautiful beaches. Before you choose the beach check the weather (wind direction), sometimes there can be waves and strong wind on one side and perfectly calm sea on the other side.

Try risotto with shrimp and truffles, seafood/fish salad, seashells, meat carpaccio, steak tartare. Portions are quite rich and prices are reasonable. Although 20km from Rovinj it is worth every kilometer :-)

Nature
Cape Kamenjak is located at the very peak of the Istrian peninsula. Its wild, intact nature attracts many visitors, however, it is never overcrowded. Lots of bays, beaches, and secluded strands offer a variety of options to choose from.
What makes Kamenjak truly unique, is that if you look really carefully you may find many fossils and even dinosaur footprints which used to roam there about 100 million years ago. There's also a one of a kind Safari bar, which offers an extraordinary ambient and perks :-)
