From the pier in the bay of Zelena Laguna (by the Villa Romana restaurant near Hotel Parentium and Lotosi Sport Center) a small passenger ship sails to Plava Laguna. A few times a day a local bus drives from Hotel Delfin to Plava Laguna. All kinds of transportation are possible to Poreč as well.

Notes: For the most part the trail is lit up at night, the trail route from Plava Laguna to Hotel Parentium is very suitable for roller-skating. Along the whole trail during the summer season there are numerous sports centers opened on land and at sea.
About 50 m away from Hotel Plavi there are stairs which go up the 38 m long hill where a chapel of St. Nikola with a bell tower is situated. There are 173 stairs to the top of the hill with a few resting spots along the way and lighting. The bell tower has extra 86 stairs and from the top there is an exceptional panoramic view over the central part of western Istria. It is open during summer season.
The peninsula where hotel Parentium is located is fenced off. Usually there is a free entrance but on occasions it is possible that it will be locked. Then you must turn left from the hotel towards the three obelisks and further on according to the described itinerary.
