Group travel experience

I was in Pula for 7 days and I fall in love. It was easy to get around with the city bus and the tickets were cheap. I would definitely recommend a beach called “Galebove stijene”. You would have to use taxi to get to the location because its a bit further away that the rest of the beaches, but it is so worth it. At night, we would usually hang out in this square park thing next to the sea and it was beautiful. If you are trying to be extra budget friendly, try out their bakeries. They are really good and cheap way to eat out.
