Valbandon is a tourist destination placed on the coast of southern Istria, 6 km northwest of Pula. The vicinity of the Brijuni National Park consisting of 13 smaller and 2 larger islands and the vicinity of fascinating and picturesque Pula, make Valbandon a great destination for a quiet family holiday. Children can play carefree on the long pebble beach, while the pine trees offer shade during the hot summer days. Besides the beautiful landscape, Valbandon is known for its many restaurants.
We recommend: the remains of a rural villa from the 1st Century, decorated with wonderful mosaics, can be seen in the Ribnjak bay.
