MEDULIN, a town in the extreme south of Istria, 11 km southeast
of Pula, on the north-eastern part of the well indented Medulin
Bay.Chief occupations are farming, fishing and tourism. Sandy
bottom, the pine forest on the peninsula south of the town and a
relatively easy access have accounted for development of
tourism. |

The protected Medulin Bay is ideal for camping and swimming, so
that a campsite was arranged on the south-eastern coast of the
Kasteja Peninsula (2 km from Medulin). Medulin lies on the
regional road Pula - Pomer - Medulin - Liznjan. |

|
Once a farmer's and fishermen's village, the present Medulin is
one of the most important tourist resorts in southern Istria.
The coast of Medulin is low, sandy and well-indented. The
Medulin archipelago, with its ten islets and the coastal
phenomenon called "primosten" or "tombolo", represents a special
natural attraction, together with its lavish vegetation cover
and extremely favourable climate. |

Apart from hotels and campsites, Medulin also offers rooms and
apartments in private family houses, so that Medulin's total
daily accommodation capacity is 17,000 tourists. Everything here
is subject to tourism. The mainstay of tourism in Medulin are
sports. Young generations are familiar with the Medulin disco,
while the lovers of live music and dance can find entertainment
on many of the open terraces in Medulin. The town is also famous
for its high quality concerts of classical music which take
place in the summer. About 40 restaurants found in Medulin
represent a real challenge for gourmands, either for the lovers
of modern cuisine or for those who favour original fish, meat or
vegetarian dishes. |

The summer in Medulin is abundant with various music and sport
events as well as entertainment, including the traditional
carnival (in February), St. James the Apostle's Day, the patron
saint of Medulin (in July), and the Sanpjero Cup, a traditional
competition in the games of skill organized for the young people
from five villages within the Medulin Municipality (in July and
August). |
