Medveja

The small fishing village Medveja, picturesquely situated at the foot of the Učka mountain in the embrace of untouched nature and clean sea, is a true tourist oasis. According to legend, the Greek sorceress Medea was the first to bathe on the beautiful pebble beach, so the place around the beach was named Medveja. The friendly hosts will accommodate you in their modern apartments, holiday homes and villas. Apart from enjoying the clear sea and sunbathing on the beautiful Medveja beach, visitors are also attracted by the many activities that Medveja offers, such as cycling, water sports, hiking and mountaineering. A well-maintained path from Medveja leads to Lovranska Draga, a village in the Učka Nature Park. The larger tourist centres Lovran, Opatija and Rijeka are only a short drive away, but also not far are the attractive towns of Istria: Pazin, Rovinj, Poreč and Umag. The nearby National Parks Risnjak, Brijuni and Plitvice will delight all lovers of natural beauty.
