Adriatic coast and harbour near Villa Lume in Istria.

A Day on the Coast

A relaxed day by the Adriatic: swimming, a harbour lunch and enough time to return before the evening light.

Leave room for the sea

Villa Lume is set inland, giving guests a quieter place to return to after time by the sea.
A Day on the Coast can be shaped around a beach, a harbour town, a swim in a quieter cove or a long seafood lunch, depending on weather and what you feel like doing.
We can recommend a route that avoids the busiest moments where possible and suits couples, families or guests who want a little more movement.
