The Istrian Coast boasts charming promenades and traditional trattorias serving fresh seafood. Its old-world charm provides a picturesque backdrop for memorable holidays, Jet2 stated.

Jet2holidays has expanded its package holiday options in the region. Travellers can choose from a wide selection of villas and hotels, ranging from 3 to 5-star accommodations.

Popular resorts include Porec, Rovinj, Umag, Novigrad, Pula, Medulin, Vrsar, and Rabac, offering a variety of experiences along the stunning Istrian coastline.

CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays Steve Heapy said: "We were incredibly excited to add Pula and the Istrian Coast to our Summer 25 programme, and it is very clear from the response that customers and independent travel agents were just as pleased.

"The demand we are continuing to see means that we have moved quickly to extend the summer season in Pula and the Istrian Coast right through to mid-October, with fantastic villa and hotel options available.
