Pula (em italiano: Pola; em esloveno: Pulj) é a maior cidade da Ístria, na Croácia, e localiza-se na extremidade sul daquela península. Sua população é de 57 460 habitantes, dos quais 71,65% são de origem croata (censo de 2011). A região é conhecida pelo seu clima cadeado pelo mar calmo e pela beleza natural. A cidade tem uma longa tradição na produção de vinho, na pesca, na construção naval e no turismo. Pula é o centro administrativo da Ístria desde os tempos romanos — embora, hoje em dia, a capital do condado croata da Ístria seja Pazin (Pisino em italiano). Era conhecida como Pietas Júlia (em latim: Pietas Iulia) no período romano.
