Istria is one of Europe’s great camping regions: rocky coves with crystal-clear water, Venetian-style harbor towns and green hills with hilltop villages, olive oil and truffles inland. Most campsites line the west coast between Umag, Poreč, Rovinj and Pula, many of them large, well-equipped holiday parks right by the sea, along with small family-run sites. The season usually runs from spring to fall, with peak season in July and August.

Camping outside registered campsites is prohibited in Croatia, and that includes spending the night in a motorhome elsewhere, with fines enforced. Stick to campsites and official stopovers. In July and August, sea-view pitches are in high demand, so book early. Take time for the interior too: hill towns like Motovun and Grožnjan are quieter and a lovely day trip.

Facilities, fees and opening times come from OpenStreetMap and can be out of date. Check with the site before you go. Campsite data: © OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL 1.0 · Updated October 3, 2026
