Traffic Infromation
Although parts of Umag are pedestrianised, it's easy to navigate around the town with your rental vehicle. Highway 75 runs around the perimeter of Umag and from there it's just a short drive to the neighbouring villages, so when you hire a car you can get a taste of the local way of life away from the tourist attractions. Umag does not have its own airport, but there is one 50 miles away in Pula. To reach Umag from Pula Airport, it's a straightforward and easy drive that takes place almost entirely on the E751 highway. When joining the E751, you will need to drive north for about 50 minutes before branching off to the east. It's also possible to fly to Trieste Airport in Italy, and to drive south through Slovakia.

Located on the Istrian Peninsula that is known for its beachside resorts, Umag is a small town that has been growing in popularity since the Second World War. It has a more diverse feel than many other areas in Croatia thanks to its multi-ethnic population, which is reflected in the music, cuisine, and culture. The food in Umag is delicious, with a blend of Mediterranean and Eastern European flavours and a focus on fresh local ingredients. The region is also home to several vineyards, so tasting the local wine is a must. Umag is a leader in ecotourism with several campsites that champion sustainable living and development, so that the natural beauty of the area will continue to be preserved.
