Rovinj's waters at 5 knots
Istria’s west coast, an archipelago of wooded islets around the Venetian old town: that is the setting. Weather-wise: a steady Istrian maestral, the bora losing much of its Kvarner violence here — with 6 hp you pick the calm morning sea, and the exact area is drawn by the operator at the briefing.
Booking at the right moment
The useful season runs from May to September, against Croatia’s most Venetian backdrop. Six-hp fleets being the smallest in the harbour, aim for the morning slot.
