About
Quick facts: Narrow cobblestone streets wind through a compact medieval town right on the Adriatic Sea, offering stunning seaside views. A well-preserved Venetian influence shows in the architecture and the charming Tartini Square at its heart.
Highlights: The town's arrival square was named after Giuseppe Tartini, a famous violinist born in this small area, and a statue of him serenades visitors in the center. Catching sunset from the ancient city walls reveals breathtaking panoramic views over the sea and red-tiled roofs.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes; the cobblestone streets can be uneven and slippery when wet.
- Head to the city walls near sunset for unforgettable views and a peaceful atmosphere.
- Skip the busiest areas around midday to avoid crowds and long waits for photos.
- Bring a camera or smartphone for capturing colorful streets and sea panoramas.
