Description

Take a ride on our sailboat and see the beautiful Rovinj archipelago and Lim Channel. 

The Rovinj archipelago has as many as 20 islands, islets and rocks. The most famous among them are certainly the island of Sv. Andrije, also known as the Red Island and the Island of St. Catherine. These two islands are both the largest and the only ones that are inhabited during the summer period.

Island of St. Andrije was owned by Lord Hütterot and was supposed to be part of the climatic health resort Cap Aureo. As in the Zlatni Rto forest park, a variety of Mediterranean and exotic species have been planted on Crveno otok.

Island of St. Katarina was also owned by a nobleman, Count Milewski, who, fed up with his turbulent life, sought peace on that Rovinj island. His desire was similar to that of Lord Hütteort. He wanted to create his own paradise on earth and planned to turn the island into a glamorous tourist destination.

It was the rivalry between Lord Hütterot and Count Milewski that made Rovinj a desirable tourist destination with one of the most beautiful forest environments. Although Count Milewski did not want to share his island with the residents of Rovinj, today you can visit both islands by regular boat line, if you still want to visit the other islands in the Rovinj archipelago, you will have to do so with your own boat, private or rented.


The Lim Channel (the local population mostly calls it just Lim or the Lim Channel, in Italian Canale di Leme), a submerged karst valley on the west coast of Istria, between Rovinj and Poreč.

The length of the bay from the coastal edge of western Istria to the furthest part of the sea-filled valley is 12.8 km, and with the dry part of the Limska Draga below, the total length is about 35 km. At the very entrance, its width is 600 m, in the middle part about 400 m, and at the end about 200 m.

Since 1964, the geomorphological-hydrogeological locality has been protected by law in the category of significant landscapes; since 1980, a special reserve in the sea.
