Discover an archipelago of 14 islands with pristine nature, rich history, and crystal-clear anchorages
A unique combination of natural beauty, history, and protected anchorages just 5 nautical miles from Pula
A national park since 1983 with diverse flora and fauna. Mediterranean forests, wild olive trees, and 680 plant species make it a green paradise.
Crystal-clear bays with turquoise water ideal for swimming and snorkeling. Sheltered anchorage in all wind directions. Water depth 2-15 meters.
Roman villas, early Christian basilica, and Tito's former summer residence. Thousands of years of history waiting to be discovered.
Deer, mouflons, and diverse bird species roam freely on the islands. The safari park even houses exotic animals — a gift to President Tito.
Just 5 nautical miles from Pula — perfect for a day trip or overnight stay. Sheltered between Pula and Rovinj, ideal as a stop on your route.
Sailors can anchor for free in the bays. To visit the main island (Veli Brijun), a national park ticket is required (approx. €15).
