6 Ul. Svetog EleuterijaFamily restaurant managed by local Croatians (that's unique), open all year round. Lovely staff and delicious foods. Locals love this place and for good reason! We highly recommend this place if you would like to avoid tourist-trap restaurants on the main street. And it's just 5 minutes of walk away from your accommodation!

Probably one of the best pizzas you'll find around. This place was recommended to us by our local friend who does ship cruises and also tuna fishing with his own ship. Places that locals recommend always turn out amazing for us that's why we pass on this recommendation. You can get a large sized pizza which is huge (and not much more expensive than a normal one), and you can ask to split the pizza so one half will be one kind of pizza and the other half could be different.

Another local favourite, again managed by a Croatian family for more than 30 years. Few travellers know about this restaurant as it is located at the very end of the Vrsar Marina. Guests of the Marina love this place, probably one of the bests in terms of value for money. Being located in the Marina, the views are great and the sunset is usually spectacular.
In Summer season you will have to get a ticket when you come into the parking of the Marina, but if you eat at the restaurant you can ask to have your ticket stamped, so your parking will be free when you showcase it when exiting the parking lot.

When looking to escape the heat or when travelling outside the summer season, make sure to check out Baredine Cave. It is an ancient monument of nature and the first ever cave opened to visitors in Istria in 1995.
There are guided tours every 30 minutes (included in the price) in many languages: Croatian, Italian, German, English, Russian (with prior announcement Slovenian and French are available).
During a tour, you descend in a chilly (14°C), well-lit and organized environment along a 300 meter long pathway up to 60 meters below ground to discover 5 beautifully decorated chambers, an underground lake, and a 4 meter wide opening that would lead 66 meters down vertically to the cave's deepest point at 132 meters. The pathway and stairs have firm rails to help you navigate. During your visit you may meet the secret residents, the cave olms (Proteus anguinus Laurenti), which are native and can only be found in the coastal regions of Croatia. :)
The Baredine Cave is located just a few kilometers north-east from Poreč, and in addition offer tastings and an agricultural exhibition to immerse yourself in local traditions during your stay.

During your stay in Istria you can spend a day visiting Venice as there is a direct ship tour from the port of Poreč. We have used the agency KOMPAS multiple times and their ship called Prince of Venice. Look out for them they offer not only transportation there but tour guiding and different programs you can opt in for.
Venice, the capital of northern Italy’s Veneto region, is built on more than 100 small islands in a lagoon in the Adriatic Sea. It has no roads, just canals – including the Grand Canal thoroughfare – lined with Renaissance and Gothic palaces. The central square, Piazza San Marco, contains St. Mark’s Basilica, which is tiled with Byzantine mosaics, and the Campanile bell tower offering views of the city’s red roofs.
