Comments

Big airport with virtually no traffic. GA parking separate from main ramp with easy taxiway access and no conflict with CAT. Shuttle bus to/from terminal. Hand-held transfer from aircraft to arrival hall well-organized and efficient (5 minutes inbound, 5-10 outbound due security scan).
Used Bolt for taxi except for return to airport (no Bolt car available). Bolt taxi from airport to Uvala was only HRK62. Regular taxi from Uvala to Airport was HRK 330 (€44) !!
Bolt from Uvala into Pula was HRK42 each way.
Pula has an interesting old centre with Roman amphitheatre including lots of Roman Istrian history of the area underneath it. There is also the beautiful St Francis church and monastery. Interesting old market building with good seafood restaurant Furia on 2nd floor overlooking the adjacent outdoor food market (mornings).
