Izola is an old Mediterranean fishing town on the Istrian Peninsula on the Adriatic Coast. The town of Izola was founded in the 7th century on a small island. The fortified city walls were torn down at some point to fill the space between the coast and the island. Together with the rest of Istria, Izola went through many rulers, but its time under the Venetian Republic left the most impact in the form of charming narrow streets and beautiful architecture.

Izola’s large marina is always full of beautiful yachts and the old fishing port is a lovely place to observe the locals going about their daily lives. Izola has a large number of great hotels, resorts, restaurants and cafes Watersports and lounging on the beach are the most popular activities.
