Our favorite Pula places to visit
Places worth visit and experiences worth exploring.
From history to education. From adventure to pleasure.
This is a "must see" category.
Situated in an Austro-Hungarian old fortress, Aquarium Pula offers you a unique experience of exploring a really great composed exhibition of sea life while learning of the military history of Pula. The Aquarium is a sea turtle refuge and run by a family of a marine biologist. As such, very educative and professional content to explore for people who want to know more about Adriatic sea and city history. Perfect for kids with hundreds of interactive -educative games and features. It's even perfect for relaxing walk among thousands of exemplars of the sea life and cool atmosphere of the stone fortress.
For us, the best details are the big sharks' aquarium, astonishing jellyfish of all kind and a perfect escape from the summer heat in a hug of fortress natural air conditioning,
We highly recommend visiting this place.

Food scene
This recommendation is simple.
For us is the best seafood restaurant on the entire peninsula.
Having dinner here is an emperor experience.
Giannino is a family restaurant, every generation more innovative and modern but always with the same family mark - exclusively fresh fish and local ingredients. The quality of the food and service above all.
Our favorite detail is with no doubt the magical Millefoglie.
We challenge you to discover it!
It's situated in the most beautiful little Mediterranean city in this part of Europe - Rovinj.
Perfect for the quest with a car.

History of Pula below the ground floor.
The tunnels offer you an educational, historical, and fun walk below the Pula city center.
The main feature in the summer is the tunnel temperature which will cool you down to a pleasant temperature.
Zerrostrasse is connected with Pula Kaštel fortress and it offers a whole experience of exploring the old "military" Pula.
