ABSTRACT

Brioni (Brijuni in Croatian) is a small archipelago of 14 islands and islets in the northern Adriatic, along the western coast of Istria, outside the city of Pula, in Croatia. The entire archipelago has been a national park since 1983. The two largest islands, Veli Brijun and Mali Brijun, are the most ‘valuable landscapes’ for their cultural-historical and natural values, but also for the recreational and aesthetic values.
