Istria is beautiful all year round, but every month offers something different. Here is a short guide.

April and May: spring in bloom

Nature is green, the roads are empty and temperatures are pleasant for cycling and day trips. Spring is wild asparagus season, an Istrian speciality. The sea is still refreshing, but in our wellness area with jacuzzi and sauna every day is perfect.

June: early summer without the crowds

The sea is already warm, the days are at their longest and the beaches are not yet full. Many guests consider it the most beautiful month in Istria.

July and August: peak season

It is hot, the sea is at its warmest and there are events everywhere, from concerts in the Arena to the Pula Film Festival. If you are coming then, book early, as these dates sell out first.

September: the best of both worlds

The sea is still warm, the crowds disappear and prices are lower. September is perfect for couples and anyone looking for peace by the sea.

October and November: olive harvest and truffles

The olive harvest begins and central Istria celebrates the white truffle season. Ideal for food-lovers’ trips.
