Istria, Croatia

Mild Mediterranean climate with 2,387 hours of sunshine a year, sea temperature reaching 25°C and average air temperature of 25°C in summer, are all reasons why Istria justly claims the title of an ecological and healthy tourist destination.
Istria is indeed a feast for the eyes. Its streams flow to the sea through deep valleys and gullies which bring to mind the ancient local myths about giants. Rolling hills overlook the fields and valleys with little towns perched on the peaks, recalling some old paintings. The view is splendid: white-topped mountains, lush wheat fields, plateaux, valleys, vineyards and olive groves on hillsides, and, finally the sea.

Istria is a penninsula in the Adriatic sea, near the Slovenian, Italian border.
Istria is home of such well known croatian towns like Pula, Umag and Porec.
The Istrian Peninsula has managed to preserve true and original natural values, so travellers can find natural destinations as national parks among the crystal clear beaches of the sea.
