SAVUDRIJA, a coastal town in the farthest north-western part of Istria, 8 km north of Umag. Economy is based on farming. One of the greenest parts of Istria (forests), featuring valuable small parks

 

 

 

 
Savudrija, an old fishermen's village and tourist resort, is the entrance to the riviera of Umag. Favreto boarding house and Paludetto and Alla Posta inns existed already at the time of Austrian sovereignty, and rooms were rented as well.
 

Along with exceptional natural resources (easily accessible rocky coast, clear seawater, pleasant water and air temperatures in summer), the development of summer holiday tourism was much facilitated by the rich cultural and historical heritage of Savudrija and its surroundings. Visitors may choose between various types of accommodations: hotel annexes, bungalows, apartments, rooms, campsites.

 

Many sports and recreational opportunities are offered, both on the mainland (hiking trails, jogging, cycling, tennis, football, basketball, handball) and in the sea (swimming, windsurfing); panoramic flights by hang gliders are also offered. There is a wide selection of entertainment opportunities (summer terraces and discotheques) and gastronomic offer is exceptionally rich (exquisite seafood, local cuisine). Traditional festivities include the folk fiesta dedicated to St. Mary Magdalene in the village Zambratija (end of July) and the Savudrija Nights (in August).
