The experience
How do you see Tito's former island without a private yacht? You sail past it on the Europa, a double-deck boat run by a family crew with over 50 years at sea. The tour leaves Pula and passes the 4.5-kilometer Gulf of Pula, where Austro-Hungarian forts still stand on the shores, then moves toward the Brijuni archipelago. Your guide speaks English, German or Croatian and shares the history as you pass the Peneda lighthouse, Vanga island with its White Villa residence, and Mali Brijun with the Fort Brioni Minor: built in 1895 and now home to a summer theater. Veliki Brijun, the largest island, shows the blend of preserved architecture and landscape that made Brijuni an exclusive resort in the early 1900s.
The boat carries you around all 14 islands over the course of the morning, with shaded seating on deck and an air-conditioned lounge below if the sun gets too much. Unlimited wine (red or white) water and soft drinks flow throughout. A freshly prepared lunch arrives mid-tour: fish, chicken or vegetarian, cooked on board. Toilets and a bar are available the whole time, so there is no scrambling to find facilities.
At Fažana, a seaside village with a pebble beach and clear water, you get 2.5 hours to swim, sunbathe or walk the waterfront lined with cafes and taverns. The Lost Bay beach bar sits in the shade at the far end of the cove if you want coffee or a cocktail. Those are separate from the tour price, but the swimming and the time are yours. By the time the boat heads back to Pula, you have seen the protected islands, eaten lunch and had real time in the water, all without arranging transport, entry or a separate meal reservation.
Is this one for you?You get a full day on the water with lunch, drinks and swimming all arranged and paid for upfront, which is what makes it possible to leave Pula in the morning and return with the islands, the food and the beach time already behind you: no separate bookings, no surprises at the bar.
