The Surroundings of Piran

Only a 10-minute walk or 5-minute drive away, Portorož is known for its long pebble beaches, palm-lined seaside promenade, and top-notch wellness centers. Visitors are also attracted by casinos, luxury hotels, and vibrant nightlife.

On the hill above Portorož, you can find a unique permanent exhibition of stone sculptures by Mediterranean artists, set in a natural environment with stunning sea views.

Just a few kilometers away lies the Sečovlje Salt Pans Nature Park – a unique wetland with over 700 years of salt production tradition. The visit includes a salt-making museum, walking trails, bird-watching towers, and a therapeutic center with salt mud treatments.

The Strunjan Nature Park enchants with its high cliffs, tranquil beaches (such as Moon Bay), and beautiful hiking trails. An ideal choice for a nature trip away from the crowds.

About 20 minutes by car from Piran, Izola offers an authentic local experience – narrow streets, fresh fish in traditional taverns, viewpoints, and the Parenzana Museum, which tells the story of the former railway line.

Koper, the largest coastal town, combines Venetian history with an urban vibe. Stroll through Tito Square, visit the Praetorian Palace, the City Tower, and numerous galleries and shops. Perfect for a day trip.
