Discover Pula

Enter the world of Roman Pula

Begin at Pula Arena, one of the world’s best-preserved Roman amphitheatres. Walk through the monumental arches, visit the underground exhibition and then continue into the Old Town. Along the way, discover the Twin Gates, Zerostrasse tunnels and Arch of the Sergii before reaching the Roman Forum and Temple of Augustus. Pula’s historic centre is compact enough to explore comfortably on foot.

Find your beach on Verudela

Pula’s coastline is formed by pebble beaches, rocky terraces and sheltered coves. Around Verudela, guests can choose between accessible family beaches, quieter swimming spots and more dramatic locations such as Hawaii Beach. Spend the day swimming and snorkelling, or follow the coastal paths through pine trees and Mediterranean vegetation.

Explore Aquarium Pula

Set inside the historic Fort Verudela and Battery San Giovanni, Aquarium Pula brings together marine life, conservation and Austro-Hungarian heritage. Its exhibits include Adriatic, Mediterranean and tropical species, while its conservation work supports the recovery of sea turtles and endangered noble pen shells.

Take a day trip to Brijuni

Brijuni National Park is reached by a short boat journey from nearby Fažana. Explore the islands’ landscapes, archaeological sites and exhibitions independently or as part of an organised excursion.

Enjoy Verudela Avenue

Verudela Avenue brings restaurants, cafés, shops and seasonal entertainment together in a pedestrian-friendly resort setting. It is a convenient place for an evening meal, a drink or a relaxed walk without travelling into the city centre.
