Cliff Jumping in Istria

If you’re seeking a pulse-raising adventure in the middle of paradise, cliff jumping along Istria’s rocky coastline offers the perfect combination of adrenaline and natural beauty. The region is dotted with dramatic limestone formations, clear turquoise waters, and hidden coves that make for ideal jump spots — whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned thrill-seeker.

One of the most popular locations is Cape Kamenjak near Premantura, where you’ll find:

• Jumps from 3 to 15 meters

• Natural stone ledges above crystal-clear water

• Caves and snorkeling spots nearby

• A laid-back bar carved into the cliffs (Safari Bar)

Other great cliff jumping areas include:

• Galebove stijene near Pula – with caves you can swim into after the jump

• Rt Školjić near Rovinj – small cliffs perfect for first-timers

• Various spots near Rabac and Brijuni (usually accessible by kayak or boat)

Cliff jumping is often paired with snorkeling or kayaking, and some local guides offer “adventure tours” that include it as part of a multi-sport experience.
