Portoroz beach
10 Lara Jovanović

There's a lovely seaside promenade lined with numerous restaurants and cafes. No matter where you choose to relax after a pleasant stroll, you'll be treated to a stunning vista.

Simon's Bay beach

This beach in Slovenia is definitely one of the nicer ones. While there isn't any sand outside of the water, there is a small stretch of it a few meters from the shoreline. The only downside was the cost of renting an umbrella. However, there were free toilets and showers nearby which was a plus. Despite only spending one day here, I'm glad I came.

Zusterna beach
10 Gà Tre Tân Hà Nội.

We absolutely adored this beach! The crystal-clear waters were spotless and the pebble beach was perfect for lounging around. The lush green grass provided ample space to spread out our beach blanket and enjoy the serene surroundings. The abundance of shade was a welcome respite from the sun's scorching rays. We were thrilled to find that parking was conveniently located right next to the beach, making it extremely accessible. The cherry on top was that it was even within walking distance from Koper, which allowed us to indulge in some delicious ice cream at Sladoledarna.

This stunning beach boasts a serene atmosphere with minimal crowds. To access it, follow the pathway that descends 150 meters from Belvedere Camping. Opt for the left route, which can be found at coordinates 45°31'55.4N 13°37'50.2E. Although the trek takes approximately 15 minutes, the picturesque view is well worth the effort. Be sure to bring ample shade and drinking water for your comfort. While parking is available at the camping site, it does come at a cost of €3 per hour or €15 per day.
