istria - CROATIA 6 It isn t just the Croatians who say that the Adriatic coast is one of the most attractive coastlines in the Mediterranean. It is also and has been for a long time a conclusion that many others come to, including sailors of yachts and boats, world travellers, famous voyagers, and even Roman emperors, who chose to build their villas and summer homes and sometimes even entire settlements on the coast of Croatia as a place to withdraw to and relax. Nowhere else in the Mediterranean are there so many islands, such a large number of bays and picturesque beaches and sun-bathed cliffs, such varied cuisine and such unadulterated culture as on the coast of Croatia. The Istrian peninsula in the north west of Croatia is not only one of the most beautiful parts of the country, it also the region with the most highly developed infrastructure and the most extensive and varied range of leisure opportunities; it also enjoys a highly varied range of cultural offers, an impressive history, and a very large selection of excellent restaurants. 7
