Dear ladies and gentlemen, dear friends,
Sport and tourism are natural allies in constant raising of the quality of life. Doing sports not only contributes to one's physical, but also mental health. Sport develops a competitive spirit in all of us and this spirit is an irreplaceable virtue in all areas in life. On the other hand, tourism opens up perspectives, connects various peoples and cultures, creates new connections and maintains the existing, while preserving and promoting the tradition and values of the environment. Together, sport and tourism bring recognisability and success to any destination.
Precisely these are the bases on which the business philosophy of Istraturist has been resting for almost 50 years. Our objective is to constantly improve the quality of accommodation, develop contents for vacation, sport and recreation, thus actively contributing to the positioning of Istra and Umag as a tourist destination of high quality, which is characterised by strong environmental orientation.
In the market, Umag has distinguished itself as a tourist destination with a top quality sports offer in Croatia, which was certainly contributed the most by the years-long tradition of the tournament ATP Studena Croatia Open. In more than 20 years, the tournament in Croatia has become the most important Croatian event with continuity, an unavoidable summer centre of tennis, beauty, entertainment, social activities and the experience of taste and smell of Istria.
In the period from July 21 to 31, I believe Istraturist, with its seven hotels, four apartment settlements and five motor camps spread along the Umag Riviera, will play the crucial part in the creation of the strong synergy of sports and tourism, which will once again show Umag, Istria and Croatia to the world as a top European and world destination.
We welcome all our guests with a smile and a wish to show them the best that we can offer. And there is a lot to show!
Welcome to Umag!
