Spring & summer in Istria from Villa Babudri

When the weather warms up, the villa becomes a base for the best of coastal Istria — beaches and old towns around Poreč, a water park for the kids, an underground cave minutes away, the Parenzana cycling trail and boat trips along the Adriatic.

Sun, sea and the open-air side of Istria

From late spring through summer, Istria is at its liveliest. From Villa Babudri near Višnjan you are a short drive from Poreč’s beaches and Old Town, family water parks, cycling routes and the coast for swimming, boat trips and long golden evenings.

Spend slow mornings at the private pool, then pick a day trip from the list below. Everything here is reachable by car, most of it within 30 minutes.
