Welcome to Vrsar
The time was slowly passing by and Vrsar, sunlit and bent over the seashore, was living its summers and winters in the same way. Peasants were growing red-greyish vines and silver green olive tress, while fishermen were catching various fish from the blue sea.
There where no tourist here. These sunny, good-natured beauties were waiting. Then awakening happened. The first tourist who had roamed to Vrsar from afar were enraptured by its romanticism, wild and gentle at the same time. When parting, they said to the sun and the sea :” We shall come again!” So they did. And brought their friends with. In this way Vrsar woke up. In this way its beauties were discovered. So the seasons of the sun and the sea have started. The seasons that still last.
To all of you, our dear unknown guests, we wish a pleasant stay under this ancient Istrian sun. Take a good rest and gather new strength for your everyday life. Give yourself up to the sun and the sea, to the green and silence, to purple dusk’s and nights full of stars and moonlight.
Enjoy the fascination and sweetness of this coast and take with you dazzling, unforgettable memories.
