Arena Runke Campsite

Tucked away on the southernmost tip of Istria, Arena Runke Campsite is a small, intimate campground offering just 4 hectares of serene, pine-covered coastal land. Perfect for those seeking a peaceful and nature-filled escape, this campsite is a haven for outdoor lovers looking to disconnect and unwind.

The campsite provides well-maintained pitches for tents, campers, and caravans, many with sea views or shaded spots beneath century-old pines. Guests can enjoy direct access to the rocky shoreline, with hidden coves and sunbathing spots, as well as a pebbly beach ideal for swimming in the crystal-clear Adriatic Sea.

Facilities include a Konzum supermarket for essentials, and nearby in Premantura, you'll find a post office, ATM, souvenir shop, and more.

This is a pet-friendly campsite, and it's especially suitable for couples, solo travellers, and anyone looking for a more rustic, authentic camping experience surrounded by the calming sounds of nature.

Just a short walk from the campsite is the charming village of Premantura, where you’ll find a selection of local restaurants, cafés, and bars, all within 500 meters. One of the main nearby attractions is the stunning Cape Kamenjak Nature Park, a protected area renowned for its rugged coastline, crystal-clear waters, and hidden beaches — ideal for snorkeling, cliff-jumping, and exploring by bike or on foot.

A few kilometers away lies Medulin, a lively resort town with a sandy beach (Bijeca), family attractions, nightlife, and waterfront promenades. If you're in the mood for culture and history, the ancient city of Pula is about 10 km away, offering an impressive Roman amphitheater, museums, and local markets.

Whether you're into jogging, cycling, or just relaxing by the sea, the area around Arena Runke offers a perfect mix of adventure and serenity.

Arena Runke Campsite is a seasonal and smaller-scale campsite, which means spots can fill up quickly—especially in high season—so early booking is highly recommended. The terrain is mostly natural and terraced, so it’s a good idea to bring sturdy shoes for walking.

Wi-Fi access is limited, making this the perfect place to disconnect from the digital world and reconnect with nature. The campsite is eco-conscious, peaceful, and tailored to those who appreciate simplicity, comfort, and breathtaking views — a true hidden gem along Croatia’s southern Istrian coast.
