Muster your energy, because today is some of the best cycling of the trip! You’ll ride along the Costa del Sud, an undulating trail with stunning views of the ocean and inlets. If you get tired, just stop for a dip in the crystal clear water. You’ll ride to Pula, which is close to the archaeological site of Nora. The site holds impeccably preserved Roman mosaics, and it’s a fascinating stop in the afternoon.
