Strunjan
Strunjan is a small village on the Slovenian coast, between Izola and Piran. The village sits at the heart of Strunjan Landscape Park. Here the coast has high flysch cliffs, a lagoon, small salt pans and pebble bays. Olive groves and orchards cover the hills above. The park protects about 4 km of natural, undeveloped coastline.
Come for walks along the clifftop, quiet swimming and a slower pace than the resorts nearby. There is no old town, but Portorož and Piran are only a few kilometres away. The village is also known for its persimmons and has a seaside spa resort.

Când să vizitezi
Late spring and early autumn are best for walking the clifftop trails. The sea is warm enough for swimming from June to September, and summer is the busiest time on the beaches. Winters are mild but often wet and grey.
The main event is the Persimmon Festival in mid-November. It fills the village with a market, local food, salt-pan tours and a contest for the largest persimmon.

Obiective turistice de top
- Strunjan Cliff rises up to 80 m and is the highest flysch cliff on the Adriatic. A marked trail follows its edge. From the top you see the Gulf of Trieste, the salt pans and Piran.
- Moon Bay is a wild pebble beach at the foot of the cliff, with no facilities. A steep path leads down in about 10 minutes; water shoes help on the stones. Do not sit directly under the cliff, because rocks can fall.
- The Strunjan Salt Pans are the northernmost and smallest preserved salt pans in the Mediterranean. Salt has been made here with traditional methods for more than 700 years.
- Stjuža is the only sea lagoon in Slovenia, a former fish farm next to the salt pans. Wooden lookouts are good for watching water birds.
- Strunjan Beach is the village's main Blue Flag beach, with pine shade, lawns and concrete platforms. In July and August a free minibus runs to it from the Strunjan bus stop.
- The Church of the Apparition of Mary is the village's pilgrimage church. Local tradition says Mary appeared to two vineyard guards here on the night of the Assumption in 1512. A painting of the vision from around 1520 hangs above the main altar.
