Continental Croatia meets the Adriatic- this peninsula's most common description. For those who enjoy both food-and-culture and sun-and-sea, Istria offers the best of both worlds.
The heart-shaped peninsula in northwestern Croatia offers epic adventures and experiences such as biking, indulging in gourmet food, wineries, and olive oil tastings, alongside stunning countryside history and activities such as paragiding, rockclimbing and diving. However, all of this would be nothing if not for its incredible rural landscape of rolling hills and fertile plains, culture-focused hilltop villages, bucolic hotels, and farmhouse restaurants, all of which you get to have a taste of without having to sacrifice experiencing Croatia's most notable feature, the Adriatic sea and its beaches.
