In Pula, ACI Marina Pula is the most central marina.
Marina Veruda and Marina Bunarina are located opposite each other in a large marina expanse on the south coast of Pula. Most of our yacht and catamaran rentals are located here.
ACI Marina Pomer, Rabac and Marina Trget are further to the east in tranquil coastal villages.

Climate and Sailing Conditions in Istria
You can rent a boat from spring time through to autumn, depending on your favourite time of year for sailing and climate preference. Summer time temperatures average 25°C to 30°C, whereas spring and autumn are generally cooler. Of course, the advantage here is that there are not so many visitors in comparison to the summer time.
The main winds affecting the sailing area are the mistral, jugo and bora. The bora is the main cause for concern but you need not worry so much during the summer season. The mistral blows in a north-westerly direction, picking up in the afternoons, ideal for your sailing boat rental and welcomed by sailors. The jugo blows in a south-westerly direction with longer cyclones bringing humidity.
Itinerary Ideas for Istria
Your boat rental has unlimited route and itinerary options as the coastline is blessed with charming Croatian villages and towns, as well as various islands and islets.
The Brijuni Islands are located just off the west coast of Pula and have their own mediterranean garden oasis as part of Brijuni National Park.
If you can’t get enough of these paradisiac islands and happen to be spending your sailing vacation on a motorboat rental, why not cruise over to Kvarner Bay and explore the east coast of Istria on the way.
Pula city centre is a fine example of Roman and Venetian architecture with the 2000 year old Roman amphitheatre and the Temple of Augustus. Aside from the heaps of bars, restaurants and clubs which come to life at night, there are many festivals on during the summer, too.
