Rovinj

Croatia

Rovinj was ruled by the Venetians for 500 years. Their influence is visible in the traffic-free lanes of the harbor or the steep streets twisting between terracotta-roofed buildings around the old Church of St Euphemia. Located 36 kilometers from Porec, this is a great-value resort if you want good sports facilities, from tennis and water sports to country walks, plus serious sightseeing.
