Kanfanar je majhno mestece nedaleč od Rovinja, v osrednjem delu hribovitega istrskega polotoka.
Na počitnice v Kanfanar vabimo vse ljubitelje narave, zelenih travnikov, vse ljubitelje kolesarjenja in sprehajanja, saj je morje od mesta oddaljeno 20 km.
V neposredni bližini je mestece Dvigrad, ki je poznano predvsem po arheoloških najdiščih, Kanfanar pa slovi predvsem po zabavi Jakovljevo, ki se odvija meseca julija, ko se priredi tudi razstava avtohtonega istrskega goveda - boškarina, ki je zaradi možnega izumrtja uvrščeno na seznam zaščitenih vrst.
