The Slovenian coast is a very popular destination for many different trips: it offers easy walking paths, more challenging mountain paths, cycling and trekking paths, excursions of historical and cultural sights or natural wonders and much more.

Portorož is the largest seaside resort in Slovenia and well-known worldwide. Thanks to its natural position it has always been protected from strong winds, and thus has a strategic setting for port activities.

The main purpose of Nordic walking is to enhance the positive effects of walking without straining the body, which is achieved by using lightweight walking poles. Thus, the whole body benefits from this kind of activity. During Nordic walking the body posture is upright, which helps improve the body posture also after the activity is finished.

In winter the beaches on the Slovenian coast are quieter and caressed by the warm sun. During this time of the year the beneficial effects of the sea air are even greater. The minerals ease inflammations by expelling toxins out of the body. The air is full of negatively charged ions and salt particles – iodine, which positively affect the respiratory system, bronchi and lungs.

The Maritime baptism or Neptune’s baptism is a traditional event in Piran, organized every year by the Secondary maritime school Portorož. It is held at the beginning of the school year to honour maritime traditions and initiate a new generation of seamen.

Winter also has its charm, even more so on the coast than in the mainland. During cold winter days the Slovenian coast is the only haven where you can stroll in the sunshine without getting chilled to the bone.
