Day-by-day itinerary

Rovinj
A fishing town on the western coast of Croatia's Istrian peninsula, its old quarter set on a former island in the Adriatic. Pastel houses rise to the hilltop bell tower of St. Euphemia's church, while cobbled lanes and a cluster of nearby islets give it an Italianate air.
