Author: It’s just gotten easier for visitors who want to travel the northern Croatian coast by boat. LNP has just started their summer catamaran service that connects Pula in Istria with Mali Losinj and Zadar, stopping at Unije and Ilovik islands en route. The service began on 2 June and continues until 30 September. The catamaran runs twice a week except in July and August when it runs up to five times week.
The same company runs the ferry between Lopar on Rab Island and Valbiska on Krk Island. Service is all year but more frequent in the summer. See the schedules and booking information.

It may not be quite as prestigious as the Cannes Film Festival, but the Pula Film Festival is certainly the premier event for the Croatian film industry whose members turn out in droves each summer. Plus, many films are shown in Pula’s Roman amphitheatre which is a spectacular setting for watching a movie on a summer night.
This year the 56th annual Pula Film Festival will be held from July 18 to July 25 and will feature works by the best Croatian film directors and also highlights from the best on the international cinema scene. Among the Croatian films look for The Land of Wonders (U zemlji cudesa) by Dejan Sorak, Let’s keep it between us (Neka ostane medu nama) by Rajko Grlic, Metastases (Metastaze) by Branko Schmidt, but also films by younger directors: Donkey (Kenjac) by Antonio Nuic, The Postman (Postar) by Niksa Svilicic, The Blacks (Crnci) by Zvonimir Juric and Goran Devic, and The Man Under the Table (Covjek ispod stola) by Neven Hitrec. The program for the international division hasn’t yet been announced but is sure to enticing.
In addition to the festival screenings, there’s also the Children’s Film Programme, Pula Film Factory, Cinemania(c) Exhibition, Videoport and Best Short Amateur Film Competition,
