Cape Kamenjak Nature park is located in the very south of Istria, near Premantura, Medulin and Pula. It is known for its crystal clear sea, hidden bays and nature that still looks wild and untouched.
Cape Kamenjak is composed of more than 30 bays and 11 uninhabited islands, and although it can be explored from land, a boat gives a completely different and unique experience. You get to experience Kamenjak away from the crowds and more privately. At the same time you see more in one day then it would be possible to see from land.

Best spots to see around Cape Kamenjak by boat
-
Uvala Portic
Great bay for a first stop. The sea is crystal clear, ideal for swimming and snorkeling directly from the boat. There is also a small beach bar nearby where you can stop for a drink and relax a bit.
-
Mala Kolumbarica
One of the most special places on rt Kamenjak. You get close by boat, and then you can swim to the cave and explore it from the inside. There is also the famous Safari Bar, hidden among the trees, you almost don't notice it until you get close, and that is what makes it unique.
-
Uvala Polje
Another beautiful bay with turquoise water and pebble beach. However, what is interesting is that from the beach you have a short walk to a small farm where you can still feel the spirit of old times and see autochthonous Istrian cattle, the boškarin. There is also a restaurant nearby called “Farma” where you can try local Istrian food.
-
Otok Porer
Porer is probably the most famous island on Kamenjak. It is famous for its almost 200 y.o. lighthouse that stands in the middle of the sea and gives it a very unique look. It is not possible to swim to the island so the boat is the perfect way to get close to it. It is especially beautiful in the evening when the sun sets, and the view of the lighthouse and the open sea creates a truly special atmosphere.

Belina Draga
This bay is ideal for those who want peace because it is quite secluded. The spot is ideal for snorkeling and relaxing on the boat without noise and crowds.
