Istria’s romantic jewel
It’s hard to exaggerate the sheer beauty of Vrsar. A medieval hilltop town that overlooks the mouth of the blue-green Lim Channel – a verdant estuary flanked by forest-covered cliffs – this small but glorious spot on the Istria peninsula is home to some of Croatia’s most dramatic scenery. Aside from the jaw-dropping views, Vrsar holidays are all about wandering down photogenic alleyways, stopping in at places for delicious food along the way.
In the town’s meandering cobblestone streets, you’ll find cute cafés and boutique shops. This is the place to duck into candlelit restaurants to indulge in plates piled high with pasta topped with lashings of truffles and parmesan. Or if you fancy dining with a sea view, you can book into an eatery on the main boulevard – choose a sunset sitting and you can enjoy views of the sky as it swirls with neon pink and purple hues. Things really don’t get much more romantic than holidays to Vrsar.
