of course, our water is top quality.
anyway I'm from Pula, and am here for the summer while I don't have classes..
You can come anytime form June to even mid-september, weather will be nice. if you don't like a **** ton of tourists then I even recommend coming at the end of august/start of september. sea temperature is usually around 25-27c around here, which is not cold
I go swimming to refresh myself, what's the point of going from 30C outside to 30c in the water?
beaches are not in the center of the city, they're more on the outskirts, but they're well connected with city buses. Try to avoid Taxis if you can, you won't get mugged or anything, it's just they're expensive af.
Definitely visit the Brijuni national park, those are some gorg islands. Rovinj, Poreč, Motuvun, all beautiful towns.
There are two water amusement parks near poreč, Aquacolors and Istralandia. I'd recommend the first, if that's you're thing. If you like EDM festivals, there are two at the end of august - Outlook and Dimension. In the first half of July, theres Pula Film Festival, which has been going on for 64 years. While it indeed is a nice experience to watch movies under the stars in 2000yo roman amphitheater, those movies are usually some croatians trashy dramas so w/e.
edit: oh yeah, alcohol is cheap and basically everyone from 16-25 is drunk every thursday, friday and saturday. cheers.
Split and Dubrovnik are full of German/Italian/British tourists anyway, so I don't expect much of an uproar for two gheys exchanging a lil peck on the lips. I mean if nothing happened in Lithuania which is full of Russian tourists...
Planning to go there next summer again.
