I spent a few days in Istria to switch off and recharge. First stop the Brijuni Islands national park, then Rovinj with its crystal-clear waters and bike rides through the pine woods. In the evening the town comes alive: dinners out and clubbing until late at night at the Havana. The perfect mix of nature, sea and nightlife.

First stop: the Brijuni Islands

First day dedicated to the Brioni Islands park: unspoiled nature, relaxation and first views of the Adriatic. In the evening dinner out to end on a high note.

Evening in Rovinj

A slow day at a relaxing pace, then in the evening we go into the center: dinner out and music at Havana until late at night.

Between sea and dining out

Swims and relaxation in the transparent waters of Rovigno, with the evening once again dedicated to good cuisine eating out.

Bike through the pine groves

Afternoon by bicycle among the pine forests: sky, scent of resin and stops to enjoy the panorama.

Last look

The last morning before leaving: one last stroll to say goodbye to the places of the trip and the turquoise bodies of water.
