The Magic of Southern Istria

The Magic of Southern Istria: Discover the Beauty of Pula and Verudela

The Italian nautical magazine recently shone a spotlight on the “magic of southern Istria” with its feature Istria, la magia del sud. Unspoiled nature, crystal-clear waters, diverse beaches, and a rich cultural heritage make southern Istria a destination that captivates from the very first moment.

Just a few kilometers from Pula’s historic center lies the Verudela Peninsula – a green oasis of fragrant pine trees, seaside promenades, hidden coves, and panoramic views of the open Adriatic. This is where our hotels and resorts are located.

From Verudela, you can easily explore the top attractions of southern Istria:

• Brijuni National Park – an archipelago of 14 islands and islets, famous for its exotic wildlife, archaeological sites, and pristine nature.
• Cape Kamenjak (Rt Kamenjak) – a protected nature park with dramatic cliffs, secluded beaches, cycling trails, and the iconic Safari Bar.
• Medulin – a charming coastal town with the long sandy Bijeca Beach, perfect for families.
• Pula Arena – one of the best-preserved Roman amphitheaters in the world, hosting numerous cultural and music events.

Beyond its landmarks, southern Istria offers outstanding gastronomy – from fresh fish and seafood to renowned Istrian olive oil and wines. Active travelers can enjoy diving, sailing, kayaking, cycling, or simply watching the sunset from one of Verudela’s many beautiful beaches.
