Ryanair flies daily to Trieste from London Stansted and four times a week to Pula. Easyjet fly to Rijeka airport (on the island of Krk). Croatia Airlines fly to Pula with connections from Zagreb. Globespan fly to Pula from Durham, Edinburgh and Glasgow.

Airports slightly further away, but still within easy reach, are Ljubljana (Easyjet), Treviso (Ryanair) and Venice Marco Polo (British Airways).

THE SURROUNDING AREA
Umag, just 7 km from Savudrija, is a popular tourist centre focused around a charming mediaeval old town that shows the architectural influence of the Venetians who controlled Umag in the middle ages. Today Umag is also an important sports centre, particularly for tennis, hosting the Croatian ATP tennis championships every July.

Across the bay from Savudrija are the attractive Slovenian coastal towns of Piran and Portoroz. Whilst further down the Croatian coast the attractive towns of Novigrad, Porec, Vrsar and Rovinj are all within reach and well worth visiting.

A short drive inland takes you to one of the most attractive areas of central Istria; an area often compared with Tuscany.

Well worth a visit are Groznjan, an ancient medieval settlement now restored as a centre for arts and music;Oprtalj, a fortified town with a 16th century church and spectacular views over the surrounding countryside; and Motovun, the most commercially developed of the hilltop towns which has a wider range of shops and cafes but is still full of charm. Well marked wine routes lead you through charming countryside to wineries where you can sample some of the best Croatian wines.
