What To Do In The Area

Using Banjole as your base you should certainly visit nearby Pula (5km) which has a 3000 years old history and represents a rare example in the world, where there are so many historical remains from the Roman era, including the Roman Amphitheater built in the 1st century AD, in the very centre of the town.

There are many monuments that witness the rich history of the city, such as the Arch of the Sergii, the Twin Gates, Hercules Gates, small Roman theatre and the City walls.

Historical attractions aside, Pula is a busy commercial city on the sea that has managed to retain a friendly small-town appeal.

The coast is dotted with fragrant pine groves, seaside cafes and a clutch of good restaurants.

Medulin Adrenaline Park
If you looking for fun and an adrenaline rush then a visit to the Medulin Adrenaline Park, which is located just over 5km from Banjole in an area of oak forest and meadows.

In the park, there is a bar where you can refresh yourself after a tour of attractions that will give you a large dose of adrenaline.High Rope Course on trees, a Zip-Line that stretches almost along the entire park, Paintball, Archery and rides in Buggies will guarantee excitement and provide a memorable experience for the whole family.

Stepping back in time on the Brijuni Islands
Three kilometres across the Fažana Channel from Fort Punta Cristo (14 km) you can spy the 14 Brijuni Islands. They sit basking in a microclimate so gentle that it was once the site of a Roman resort and royal villa. The ruins remain beside lovely Verige Bay on Veli Brijun, which is now a protected national park.

A 20-minute ferry transports you across the sparkling sea from Fažana. The ticket includes a guided tour, or you can pick up a bike or electric cart and join other holidaymakers cycling, golfing, sailing and playing tennis like a scene from a 1950s holiday ad.
