Top 2 Gorges around Sveti Lovreč

1. "Zaljev" (bay) is WRONG! Geologicaly it is the CHANNEL and they corrected it = it's called Limski kanal or Lim channel. 2. The channel was the border line (limit) between two counties: Ager Polensis (Pula County) on the south and Ager Parentinus (Poreč county) situated between Lim channel on the south and the river Mirna on the north, Also untill the year 1830. it was the border line (limes) between the diocese of Pula and the diocese of Poreč. Since 1830. it is the 1 diocese = Diocese of Poreč (bishop's seat) and Pula. 3. "Border line"/Limes between the PROVINCES of Istra ("Histria" and Dalmatia was originaly the river Raša on the eastern part of penninsula. By the time Dalmatia was "reduced" and became smaller. Btw, I am the tourist guide and tour leader with almost 50 years of expirience.

end of the fjord with small characteristic places. There is also a beach and an oyster farm. Pleasant until mid-morning, then literally invaded by tourists and boats.

The very end at the fjord is very rocky - you have to use a gravel bike

In total, the Limski Fjord is 10km long and sometimes up to 30 meters deep. When we visited, the water was very clean here. However, we were there out of season.

The Lim Fjord, also known as the Lim Channel, is 12 kilometers long. It is part of Istria's longest gulf, surrounded by 200-meter-high hills. Locals mistakenly call it a fjord, for the simple reason that the film "The Vikings," starring Kirk Douglas and Tony Curtis, was filmed here in the 1950s.

A view worth seeing 🤩

The end or beginning of Limski Fjord is part of most Limskifjord tours. You can usually save all of these. There is usually a 1-hour bathing break down here. The view and the flair is nice, but the area has many beautiful corners. The water down here is just dirty. As a result, you don't see many a giant stone in the water, which could hurt you when you walk into it. The separate swimming area can be fully explored on foot. With swimming there is not much. And in addition, it is completely overloaded during the tour times of the ships.

Very good restaurants
