Beaches in front of the Piran Hotel and at the Piran Punta
Beach
Next to Hotel Piran, there is a small, well-maintained city beach, popular for a quick dip in the sea. It’s suitable for hotel guests, passersby, and anyone looking for easy access to the water in the heart of Piran. Thanks to its location, it offers a beautiful view of the coast and the Bay of Piran. Shade is limited.
At the tip of Piran, you’ll find a natural entry into the sea among the rocks — more popular with locals and visitors seeking an authentic seaside experience without infrastructure. The beach is an officially designated bathing area and offers a stunning view of the open sea and the sunset. Due to the rocky terrain, caution is needed when entering the water.
