We parked outside town and walked along the waterfront into the old town just as the storms finally cleared and the sun came out. First stop: lunch at Fritolin pri Cantini — essentially a tiny hole-in-the-wall seafood spot with outdoor seating on the square nearby. The fried seafood platter was incredible.

One particularly wild detail: from the tip of Piran you can see four countries — Slovenia, Croatia, Italy, and even the mountains of Austria in the distance.
