Island of Brijuni [Kvarner islands]
Three larger and 12 smaller islands that have been homes to the wealthiest and important families since the Antique comprise the Brijuni archipelago situated parallel to the western coast of Istria. Just as a large part of the Adriatic coast, Brijuni are an ideal combination of natural beauties and cultural heritage. Ever since prehistoric times people have recognized how favorable the position of the islands is and started creating history on a relatively small area. If you come to Brijuni you will see historic traces everywhere, since there are over one hundred localities and objects of archeological and cultural-historical values on the islands that date back to the period of neolith. The combination of turquoise blue sea and fresh green is a true natural paradise where cultural monuments remind us of past times. White Istrian stone that can be found throughout the islands and their beaches stretches like a pearl necklace.
