The Istrian Peninsula is the closest holiday destination in Croatia to Western Europe. Due to the advantages of its 242 kilometers of coastline and approximately 2,400 hours of sunshine per year, it is considered a classic summer destination, especially among Italian, Austrian, and German tourists. The coastal towns of Istria are particularly popular, while the lush hinterland of this culturally and naturally rich Adriatic peninsula is still waiting to be discovered by tourists.
This comprehensive travel guide to Croatia describes all the interesting places in Istria and the Kvarner Bay: Umag and the north, Poreč and the center, Rovinj and the southwest, Pula, Medulin, and the southeast, the Riviera of Opatija, the eastern coast of Kvarner Bay, and the islands of Cres, Lošinj, Krk, and Rab. Rijeka, the European Capital of Culture 2020, is also mentioned in detail over 15 pages. Each chapter begins with a double page that presents the contents along with an overview map of the region, highlights, and page references. Color-coded page number boxes corresponding to the chapters make it easier to navigate the book. Enhanced map graphics further contribute to simplified and targeted handling.
Of course, the guide includes tried-and-true practical tips for travel questions from A to Z. The expanded preface contains overview pages with descriptions of all regions, a yearly overview of festivals and events, suggested itineraries, and the author's personal top tips. Many specific pieces of information, such as travel advice and various activity options, serve as helpful planning aids. Detailed excursions into history, land, and people distinguish this up-to-date travel guide, as does a small Croatian language guide.
