We are often asked for restaurant tips and nice sights in Istria. I have now put together a first list of the most important highlights in Istria. You are welcome to send us your insider tips in the comments field, we will be happy to expand the list further.
I have also made a rough division into sights, olive oil tasting, restaurants and wineries.
Sights
1. Oyster farming on the Limski Canal
My personal highlight in Istria is Emil's oyster farm. Be sure to call in advance. Emil can usually be found there in the morning. He also speaks good German ;-)
You can find some impressions of the Limski Canal in our article
