Croatian Provence: fairytale lavender fields in Istria that we want to visit this summer!

Because of the beautiful fields of lavender, travelers from all over the world travel to Provence in the summer, the magical French region known for its endless fields of this fragrant, purple flower. But you don't have to travel to the south of France to enjoy these wonderful colors and scents, as Croatian Istria can also boast of its fairy-tale fields of lavender.

In Croatian Istria, near towns Štokovci and Svetvinčenat, the Pekici family farm stands, surrounded by this aromatic plant that creates magical scenes and scents that you will undoubtedly enjoy. The fairytale image of the lavender field is complemented by a beautiful kajun, one of the symbols of Istria. It is a small shepherd's shelter made of stone.

In addition to these wonderful scenes, Izletište Pekica prepares and offers traditional dishes with a touch of lavender, which give them a special taste and aroma. The specialty of this resort is to provide an authentic experience where visitors can experience the life of a farming family, starting with picking lavender and making lavender souvenirs.
