Slovenia has a relatively small coastline along the shores of the Adriatic Sea. The Slovene coast is sandwiched between the Bay of Sistiana, Trieste Province in Italy and the city of Umag, Istrian Peninsula in Croatia and is a mere 46 km long. However it is an area of outstanding beauty and offers wonderful coast resorts such as Piran, Portorož and Izola.
