Porton Biondi Beach is nestled just north of Rovinj, right beneath the serene Camping Porton Biondi. If you're strolling from Rovinj's charming old town, you'll find yourself there in about 15 minutes. Driving instead? You've got two parking options: a quaint spot near the Fish Processing Factory Mirna and a larger area beside the Arupinum rowing club.
The coastline here is mostly rocky and can be a bit tricky to navigate. However, near the campground, they've crafted concrete piers for swimmers, interspersed with gravel, making it easier and more pleasant to slip into the Adriatic's inviting waters or simply lounge on the beach.
What truly sets Porton Biondi Beach apart is its stunning view of the Rovinj peninsula. This picturesque sight has undoubtedly made this stretch of coast a popular destination in recent years. Plus, the area boasts crystal-clear waters, perfect for snorkeling enthusiasts eager to explore the underwater world. The beach is also dotted with charming cafés and local eateries, where you can savor authentic Croatian dishes while enjoying the sea breeze.
