About this tour
This session pairs the open view from Piran's outermost point with a closer look at what actually lives in that same stretch of sea. You see the lighthouse and the wide horizon from Punta, then species from the Adriatic on display at the town's small aquarium. It moves from the open water back into the old town.
I hold the phone steady against the wind at the point, then move calmly through the aquarium, naming species as they come into frame and taking questions throughout.
This suits anyone curious about the sea around Piran rather than just its architecture. It also suits visitors travelling with people interested in marine life.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide

Itinerary
-
Welcome and sound check 5 min
The guide joins the video call, checks the picture and sound with you, and gives you a quick sense of Piran before heading out.
-
Punta Lighthouse 21 min
You see open sea on three sides from the tip of the peninsula, and I explain how clear days can bring the Croatian coast into view across the water.
-
Piran Aquarium 21 min
The camera moves to the small aquarium near the harbour, and I point out species drawn from the same stretch of Adriatic visible minutes earlier from the point.
-
Your questions 9 min
Time to ask anything about Piran: prices, safety, food, or whatever you are curious about.
-
A short list to keep 4 min
Before you go, the guide sums up with a few things worth remembering: a dish to try: Teran wine and Punta, worth a slower look.
Good to know

- The session is not recorded, and recording it yourself is not allowed. Feel free to take your own notes.
- Ask questions any time, out loud or in the chat. The guide will pause to answer.
- Sessions run in small groups, up to 10 people, so there is room for everyone to ask something.
