V zavetju relativno majhne, a zelo slikovite slovenske obale s starodavnimi mesteci, solinami z rezervatom ptic, urejenimi turistični objekti z marino, športnim letališčem, termami in igralnico se razteza morda najznamenitejše področje Slovenije - Kras.
In the hinterland of the relatively small but very picturesque Slovenian coast with its ancient towns, its salt pans (which today house a bird sanctuary), its comprehensive tourist facilities including a marina, a sports airfield, thermal spas and a casino, extends perhaps the most famous area of Slovenia: the Karst.
