One of the best restaurants around, when we are talking about food quality and the price. I would definitely reccomend. Fresh fish and sea food. Expert and friendly waiter/owner :)

The best pizza in Izola and around. You have a little private free parking behind the restaurant, so you don’t need to worry for that, otherwise you have 1 hour free parking at parking Lonka 2 minutes walking from this place. The pizza taste is really delicious! Friendly owner and good staff.

If you want to eat good, you just must go here! This place is allways full of people, so it would be good to take a reservation, but there is allways a free table if you are lucky enough :) You must try their specialty “Ombolo v testu” pork meat inside pizza bread with various add-ons.

It takes a little longer to get to the top, but it’s totally worth it! You will enjoy the beautiful view and don’t forget to take a selfie! :) At the top there is also a cottage with local foods and drinks. The gently sloping path it takes two hours, the harder and more difficult path it takes about one hour. Both paths are nice and not dangerous. But for beginners I would consider taking the easier one :) You park the car at the village Razdrto, right outside the highway. There is a sign table that shows parking for Nanos hikers. Enjoy!! You will not regret it, the photos from the top are amazing !! :)

You must not forget to go to the church, where there is a beautifull view of the whole town and the whole bay of Piran. Historically rich and full of options to get a good coffee break (Cafinho, Da Noi) or eat a fresh fish (Pavel, Pri Mari)

A natural type of beach with also nudists here and there...this beach is mostly occupied by locals. Very interesting type of beach...you must walk down the cliff to get to the sea and then the best part of the beach is if you go to the left...there is sand and also the water is not deep, so its nice for children to play.

This place is mostly visited by tourists, because is also tourists friendly...it offers a big slide for kids, a big field of grass where children can play, there is a beachvolley field, you can rent a jet or sup or pedalino. The problem can be sometimes, that the water is a little dirty of sea grass. Otherwise this is samd beach, so its good for children. You also have a bar and a restaurant right at the beach. Nice for families and groups :)
