15-20 minutes along the coastal road west of Pula are the dazzling white sand dunes of Chia. Set in a transparent sea in a kaleidoscope of green and blues, this stretch of coast provides one of the prettiest drives on the island.
Better still, you virtually have the road to yourself to admire these breathtaking views. From Chia the road turns inland briefly and as you drop once more towards the coast you are presented with a breathtaking view of small islands.
Chia is a popular holiday spot that also attracts watersports' enthusiasts, particularly kite and windsurfers. The sea is often dotted with colourful sails bobbing on the ocean and if you happen to be in the area around Easter, The Chia Classic windsurfing competition is held here.
