I have just bought an appartment in Novigrad in Istria based on 4 things;
It's a great town very charming. It's a short drive from Trieste. A new motorway is opening on 2005 A new marina is due to be built there.
But I have am begining to have my doubts about the marina. Even though various estate agents are talking about it and there has been some obvious preliminary work and there is a large advertising hoarding in front the supposed developement. - Local croats do not seem to know much about it. - Apparently it has been muted for years. I have also tried to contact the developer named on the hoarding but I get no reply.
Is it all a wind up?! - any information is gratefully received..

The latest on the Novigrad marina is that remains of the old Roman town have been found on the seabed. They are waiting for the archaeological people to check it out before advising on modifications to the layout of the marina. The tourist people are keen to get the marina built and so will be applying pressure for the archaeological study to be completed as soon as possible. We also now have fuller details of the marina development, which will include tennis courts and a four star hotel on the north side of the bay.
