Car travellers: take care! There's a limited number of cars which are allowed to enter the town and - of course - it is filled by residents and hotel guests. You will be asked to park outside the town, but the number of available places is not unlimited, so: be ready to leave the car far away and walk your way until the official Park entrance, where a shuttle-bus will take you right in the town centre. It's just a 5 minutes ride and you may easily walk. Leave a Comment

Cars are generally not allowed in the old town. From this reason it is highly recommended to leave your car in the parking lots just outside the town and walk along the port towards Tartini Square or take one of the convenient free shuttle buses leaving the parking lots roughly every twenty minutes.
The biggest lot is along the waterfront "Parking Place Fornace" and costs about €8 per day.
If you need to drop off your bags, you can drive to Tartini Square and, if lucky, park at one of the metered spots, it's not a lot of fun since the streets are very narrow and parking costs €24 per day. Parking is free for less than 15 minutes only.
Do not park your car in spots reserved for residents or you will find the wheel of your car clamped and expect to pay a high fine to have it removed.

Fear not! Drive on to Portoruz and find somewhere to park there (though that might not be particularly easy). Then you can get a bus to Piran; they run pretty frequently (every half-hour or so on holidays), along the 'main drag', and stop by Piran harbour.
Even if you end up parking way out by Portoruz marina, at the far extent of the town, the bus will be available. Worth knowing, because it seems that half of Ljubljana comes to Portoruz/Piran on sunny national holidays! Leave a Comment

Actually, there is another warning. An event so dangerous that I could not even photograph it lest my camera be destroyed. All along the rocks at the edge of the water, Slovenes, Germans, Austrians, and Italians lie under the sun. Too many Speedos and too many missing bikini tops for men and women who really should leave them on. Be prepared to avert your eyes in horror. But it's fun to see Europeans at play, with whole families sloshing through the cobblestone streets on their way back to their flat or hotel.
