Rovinj: Why Visit Now
"Famed for its ravishing sunsets, pretty fishing harbor rimmed by Venetian-era pastel facades, steep cobbled alleys leading to a hilltop church, and classy designer hotels, Rovinj is Istria's most enchanting seaside destination. Blessed with abundant fresh Adriatic seafood, combined with award-winning wines, olive oils and musky truffles from rural inland Istria, it is the ideal destination for foodies and wine lovers. While fine dining is big on the coast, agrotourism farms offering hearty home-cooking and rustic accommodation make a truly authentic alternative in inland Istria. And then you have Istria's rich cultural heritage - the Ancient Romans, the Byzantines and the Venetians all left impressive monuments across the region." - Jane Foster
