Adriatic Wave
Looking for an unforgettable fishing experience in Istria? Join us on a private fishing tour starting from Valbandon, a charming coastal village near Fažana – gateway to Brijuni National Park.
Our fishing trip takes you to some of the richest and most secluded fishing spots in the Fažana Channel, around the Brijuni Islands, and along the Pula breakwater – known for their diversity of marine life.
The tour is led by Stefano and Valter, a father-son team of experienced professionals:
Stefano is a marine biologist, certified fishing coach, long-time member of the Croatian national team, and multiple world champion in sport fishing from anchored boats.
Valter, his father and mentor, is also a Croatian national team member and masters-level competitor.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced angler, this is a great opportunity to learn from the best, enjoy nature, and spend quality time with your family. Children are very welcome!
Our tours last about 3 hours. If you choose an evening tour, it often ends with a stunning sunset behind the Brijuni Islands, and with a bit of luck, dolphins might make an appearance. If you prefer a morning tour, you’ll enjoy a beautiful sunrise over the Fažana Channel and the calm, crystal-clear sea. Morning tours are available only on Saturdays and Sundays.

Great trip!
My 14yr old son and I had a great evening (~6-9pm) fishing trip with Stefano. He is very knowledgeable about local waters (and fish biology in general) and he aims to catch smaller, more abundant species with lighter equipment which makes fishing more fun and adds a lot of action! Stefano was very helpful with setting up different bait and change the terminal tackle as needed. At the same time he setup a larger rod semi-trolling to try to catch bluefish (strelka) which is around but is not a guaranteed catch. We caught a lot of fish (several different species) and Stefano cleaned and made fish ready for us (we tried it, it was tasty). Highly recommended.

Great fishing trip
My son had a great fishing trip, where he caught many fish of different sizes. The highlight was a big eel. The skipper was skilled and super nice. We got different food and drinks during the whole trip. It was also a great trip, and we saw a dolphin.
