With its picturesque harbor along the Adriatic Sea, it is easy to see why the pretty city of Rovinj in Croatia is referred to as the "Venice of of Istria.” A few centuries of Venetian rule has left its elegant mark on the city's architecture and its close proximity to Venice has led to a steady flow of ocean traffic between the two cities. In fact, to save money it makes great sense to book a stay in Rovinj and combine it with a daytrip to Venice.
