Experiences: ★★★ (3)
You can now enjoy beautiful sunsets here.
Directions: When you park the car, go straight to the beach, turn left there and walk along the beach about 1.200m to 3.000m.
Izola and Koper are connected by a 4 km long beach, which is reserved for pedestrians, cyclists and, of course, bathers. This is the longest beach in Slovenian Istria, where you can now enjoy sunsets without the noise of traffic.
Snorkeling
The beach is ideal for snorkeling and watching the abundance of fish and other marine life that go out to graze in the early morning or evening hours.
During World War II, the SS Rex, the largest Italian ocean liner of its time, almost as big as the Titanic, sank here. The socialist government at the time dismantled this ship and collected almost all the metal parts. However, despite this, at a depth of 4 – 8 m, there are still many remains of this magnificent ship.
Hiking
This is also the famous Paranzana hiking trail that takes you from Koper to Izola. The path takes you close to the seashore all the time. In the evening you can watch beautiful sunsets.
Parking
There is a paid parking lot available.
Make sure to bring some snacks and water with you to stay hydrated!
