Fishing & Aquaculture

Review: Piran Aquarium (Piran, Slovenia)

Baird Maritime

Despite its small size, this compact aquarium, located in the centre of Piran, along Slovenia's small stretch of coastline on the Adriatic, is charming, has a cheap entry fee, and showcases a range of local species.

The sixteenth century former Italian port is of interest to readers of this web portal for a number of other reasons, with numerous fishing vessels operating out of the area, a maritime museum located by the harbour, and many fine seafood restaurants. Glass-bottomed boat tours are also available nearby, as well as scuba diving.

Opening Times:

Closed October 16 – March 24
