Camping Orsera, Seaside campground in Vrsar, Croatia
Camping Orsera is a seaside campground near the town of Vrsar on the Istrian coast of Croatia. The grounds are laid out on a gentle hillside with terraced areas, with views toward small offshore islands.
Vrsar was part of the Roman Empire, and traces of that period can still be seen in the stone walls of the old town. The area around the campground was developed for tourism later, as the Istrian coast grew into a popular destination during the second half of the 20th century.
Camping Orsera sits on the edge of Vrsar, a town still known for fishing and fresh seafood served in nearby restaurants. The old town has narrow stone streets and a church tower visible from the water.
Arriving early in the day gives the best chance of securing a pitch close to the water, as those spots fill up fast. A valid ID is required at check-in, so keep it within easy reach when you arrive.
The campground has a dedicated beach section where dogs can run and swim freely, with pet showers installed right on the sand. This is rare along this stretch of the Istrian coast and draws many travelers who bring their dogs along.
