Pula's air quality benefits from its exceptional Istrian Adriatic peninsula position, with consistent Bora and Jugo winds providing dramatic and reliable maritime ventilation around this ancient Roman amphitheatre city. Vehicle traffic on the D66 and the surrounding Pula Airport, naval base, and tourism industry contribute local sources, while the outstanding Adriatic coastal exposure and the peninsula's open sea geometry generally maintain Pula among Croatia's cleaner coastal urban environments throughout most of the year.
