Discover Cape Kamenjak: Southern Istria’s Natural Treasure
Just a short drive from Visula Hotel & Spa lies Cape Kamenjak, one of Croatia’s most spectacular protected nature parks and one of the must-visit attractions in southern Istria.
Located at the southern tip of the Istrian Peninsula, Cape Kamenjak stretches across more than 30 kilometres of rugged coastline featuring hidden coves, dramatic cliffs, crystal-clear waters, and untouched Mediterranean landscapes.
Visitors can spend the day cycling scenic trails, exploring secluded swimming spots, snorkelling in the Adriatic Sea, or simply admiring panoramic views that make this one of the most photographed places in Croatia.

For nature lovers, it is an essential stop during any holiday in Medulin.
Explore the Adriatic Coast by Kayak
One of the best ways to discover southern Istria is from the sea.
Kayaking allows visitors to explore hidden beaches, quiet bays, rocky coastlines, and peaceful corners of the Adriatic that are often inaccessible on foot. Paddling across the calm turquoise waters offers a unique perspective of the coastline while allowing you to experience the region’s natural beauty at your own pace.
Whether you choose a guided excursion or rent a kayak independently, this activity is suitable for beginners, experienced paddlers, couples, and families alike. It is an unforgettable way to connect with the sea while enjoying one of Croatia’s most beautiful coastal destinations.
Experience Windsurfing on the Adriatic
Thanks to its favourable summer winds and sheltered bays, Medulin has become one of Croatia’s most popular destinations for windsurfing.
The conditions are ideal for both first-time visitors and experienced surfers, with local schools offering lessons and equipment rentals throughout the summer season. Watching colourful sails glide across the Adriatic has become one of the iconic sights along the Medulin coastline.
Whether you are looking to learn a new sport or simply enjoy an active day by the sea, windsurfing offers an exciting way to experience the Adriatic from a completely different perspective.
Escape to Ceja Island by Boat
A summer holiday in Medulin would not be complete without a boat trip to Ceja Island, one of the most popular islands in the Medulin Archipelago.
Located just a short boat ride from the mainland, Ceja offers visitors a peaceful escape surrounded by crystal-clear Adriatic waters and untouched natural beauty. Spend the day swimming in secluded coves, relaxing on rocky beaches, snorkelling, or simply enjoying the slower pace of island life.
The journey itself is part of the experience, with panoramic views of the Medulin coastline and the surrounding islands creating unforgettable moments along the way. Whether travelling as a couple, with friends, or as a family, a boat excursion to Ceja Island is one of the highlights of a summer stay in southern Istria.
