Ankaran

Ankaran with the Debeli Rtič Landscape Park, which is a real eyeful for photography, is one of the most important tourist centers in Slovenian Istria. It is the right choice for all those who like to discover the green corners of unspoiled nature, and enjoy the sea views and the varied beaches. Ankaran is a family-friendly destination, as well as for individual travellers and groups.

Everything is right at your fingertips. The sparsely populated peninsula, amid the waves of the Gulf of Trieste, offers picturesque views to the east and to the neighbouring Slovenian seaside towns of Koper, Izola, and Piran. To the west, the peaks of the Apennine Alps are dotted, below which the Italian seacoast disappears towards Graz. Even the Slovenian capital Ljubljana is only an hour away.

Nature lovers and nature conservationists are especially fond of coming here. In addition to the incredible views, they are attracted by the exceptional biodiversity on land and in the sea. The mild Mediterranean climate and exceptionally mild winters make the destination attractive all year round for walkers, cyclists, and spa tourists. It also attracts lovers of persimmons, wine and homemade, organically grown olive oil.
