Day trip from Pula to Venice

Submitted by Lene Smalby | 60,254 views

One of the most popular destinations for a day trip from Pula is Venice in Italy. As a traveller you have several options in terms of transportation, which we have listed here.

The properly easiest way of getting from Pula to Venice is to take a catamaran, Venezialines and a few other operators have several weekly departures between the cities. The catamarans normally only run in the summer period usually from about 1 of June till end of September, timetables are normally available in the beginning of the year.

You can check timetable for Catamaran operators here.

Venezialines – Schedule

Commodore Cruises – Schedule

Atlas travel – Schedule (Currently only available on Croatian)

Price for a return trip is around 70 euro / person, (discounted tickets for kids) normally the provider has special offers like, family packages, earl birds, last minute, so remember to check if any of these options would fit with your travel plans.

Travel time with Catamaran to Venice is around 3 hours.

Car, driving to Venice from Pula takes about 3 hours, the travel distance is about 280 km, from which 250 km is motorway, where toll fees apply. In Venice there is fairly cheap parking at the Venice car park by the Marco Polo airport from there is a free water shuttle to the historic town in Venice. If you need a rented car or a minivan for the trip to Venice, you can find rental offers from Pula here.

Third option for travelling between Venice and Pula is to take a public Bus, there are two daily departures (except Sundays) from Pula, travel time is about 4 hours and 30 minutes, and the price for a return ticket is around 70 Euro, unfortunately this option is not really recommendable for a day trip, as the buses departure relative early from Venice, which only leaves you with a few hours to see the city.

Pula Croatia – Holidays in Pula

Pula is the largest town and the administrative centre of Istria, but today Pula is also a modern tourist destination. In the summer months tourist are offered an extensive program of cultural events, among the most famous events is the Pula Film festival and the Histria Festival. The latter is a music festival which takes place in the 2000 years old Roman Amphitheatre, the Arena. Normally the Histria festival has real world stars like e.g. Elton John on the program, so it is for sure something to consider if you plan to spend your holidays in Pula.

In terms of overnight there is plenty of private accommodation in Pula. As Pula is relatively big in terms of surface, I recommend you to check in which city part you will be staying. I also recommend checking out how often the city buses run from the specific city part. In the suburb called Verudela a large number of Hotels can be found, but of course it is also possible to find hotels in the centre of Pula. The campsite offer inside city border of Pula is limited but in the larger areas of Pula there are plenty of great campsites.

In terms of restaurants Pula has more or less everything to offer. The highlight is a restaurant run by two chefs who used to work for the world famous restaurant El Bulli in Spain. Restaurants can be found in all parts of the town. Of course, the majority of restaurants is concentrated around the centre of the city.
