Information about Porec
Porec is a Croatian city of 17,460 inhabitants located on the west coast of the Istrian peninsula. It is one of the major tourist centers in the region.

Of ancient Roman origins, it developed around the port, protected by the islet of St. Nicholas (now in Croatian Sveti Nikola). The city's population is around 7,600 people, residing largely in the suburbs; including the entire municipal territory (142 km²), the population is close to 20,000 units.

The area has about 37 km of coastline including, from the north, between the river Mirna (Mirna), south of Cittanova (Novigrad), and Fontane (Funtana), near Vrsar (Vrsar). Porec is a bishopric with the Diocese of Pore? and Pola, suffragan of the Archdiocese of Fiume.

Rovinj is a Croatian fishing port on the west coast of the Istrian peninsula. The historic center is located on a promontory and is characterized by narrow houses close to each other up to the waterfront. A tangle of paved streets leads to the Cathedral of Sant'Eufemia, located on a hill and whose imposing bell tower dominates the skyline. South of the old town is Baia Lone, one of the pebble beaches in the area. The 14 islands of the Rovinj archipelago are immediately close to the mainland.
