Another Beautiful Adriatic Peninsula Town: Izola, Slovenija

Larry and I took a trip around the tip of the Adriatic peninsula to visit Izola. Izola very similar to Piran, just slightly more populated and with a lot of commercial fisherman. As such the harbor is full of fishing vessels. Larry fondly remembers a trip to Izola while on his mission, when he jumped out of the bus and raced the other missionaries for a view of the Adriatic. Much like Piran, it’s also a beautiful, ancient, highly photogenic town. I’ll let the photos speak for themselves.
