Second option is to take the bus #32 to Opatija. You can find the schedule [http://www.autotrolej.hr/default.asp?ru=90&gl=200505190000003&sid=&jezik=1 here]. Ask a driver to drop you off the nearest possible to the BILLA supermarket in Opatija. When you see the supermarket, walk 3-4 minutes to the East. It seems illogical, but don't worry. [https://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=Nova+cesta+62,+51410,+Opatija,+Hrvatska&daddr=Nova+cesta+51,+Opatija,+Hrvatska&hl=hr&ll=45.344009,14.312857&spn=0.006002,0.006491&sll=45.343794,14.311951&sspn=0.003001,0.003245&geocode=FVjkswIdQ13aACnVQWI-fqhkRzEAYTA2edF71w%3BFa7qswIddmfaACmz9DFhgKhkRzEodJVubJJKmA&t=h&mra=ls&z=17 Map] is here. Point A is the supermarket, point B is the parking lot. The parking lot makes it easy for drivers to pull over. DON'T put a sign, because Istria is in the opposite direction. When someone pulls over, you have to ask if they are going towards the tunnel. (Croatian: prema tunelu.) That gets you on the way to the Istrian highway, famous Istrian Y. (Check the map of Istria and you'll see the Y. ;)) When you get dropped off, you can start using a sign.
July 2015: I used the the first option and had to wait no more than 20 minutes (which is really a record in my case) for a ride! The drivers was going to Porec and left in Pazin (in the town) which was also fast to take another ride! When i was volunteering in Pula also meet another 2 hitch hickers that used the same spot and also recommend.
