Banjole, Coastal settlement in Medulin, Croatia.
Banjole is a coastal settlement in southern Istria with rocky shores, small coves, and Mediterranean vegetation. The village spreads along the coast and offers access to several beaches with clear water.
The area was inhabited during Roman times, as shown by archaeological discoveries throughout the region. This continuity of settlement has shaped the village to the present day.
The settlement has a fishing heritage rooted in its location along the Adriatic, with boats and nets visible around the harbor throughout the day.
The village is easily reached by bus from Pula and Medulin and offers direct access to several beaches. Visitors will find landing places and water access without major obstacles.
Fishermen take visitors out at night in boats and teach traditional net-casting techniques, showing how local knowledge is still passed down. This experience reveals methods that have remained largely unchanged for decades.
