Mt Medvednica
Mt Medvednica offers excellent hiking opportunities. There are two popular routes: you can take tram 14 to the last stop and then change to tram 15 and take it to the last stop. Here you'll be near the funicular that goes to the top of the mountain; next to the funicular there is a clearly marked footpath that also takes you to the top.

Diver Sport Centre
Most people hop aboard a boat for serious swimming, snorkelling and sunbathing. A trip to Crveni Otok or Sveti Katarina is easily arranged. Diver Sport Center is the largest operation in Rovinj, offering boat dives from €20 to €35 depending on distance, and equipment rental for €20. The main dive attraction here is the wreck of the Baron Gautsch, an Austrian passenger-steamer sunk in 1914 by an Austrian mine causing 177 fatalities. The wreck lies in 40m of water and offers plenty of marine life.

Kronmar Diving
Kronmar Diving offers some unusual opportunities for diving. There’s a 3rd-century Roman wreck in relatively shallow water. The remains of the ship, including amphorae, have calcified over the centuries and this has protected them from pillaging. There’s also a German torpedo boat from WWII and several walls to dive.
