Valun is situated
in the southern part of the Bay of Valun between two beautiful pebbly
beaches. Valun was founded as a port of the old village of Bucev, the
remains of which were found in the vicinity of the Church of St. Mark,
whose inhabitants established a new settlement when they got oriented to
the sea.Today Valun is a picturesque seaside village, situated around a
small harbour, whose economy is based on camping and family tourism.
Apart from the Church of St. Mark and "Valun's table" from the 11th
century it is interesting to see Glagolitic collection of stone
monuments situated on the terrace of a restaurant where copies of the
oldest inscriptions in Glagolitic alphabet from Istria, Kvarner and
Dalmatia are displayed.
