    Starting from the center of Portorož, head towards the waterfront promenade (Obala). Walk along the promenade heading south. You will pass several cafes and shops on your left. Continue walking until you reach the end of the promenade, where you'll see a path leading up towards the hills. Take this path, which will eventually lead you to the Rdeči svetilnik, also known as the Red Lighthouse, located near Luška kapetanija. The lighthouse is visible from a distance, so keep an eye out for its red structure as you approach.

    If you prefer not to walk, you can take a local bus from the main bus stop in Portorož. Look for the bus heading towards Lucija. Get off at the Luška kapetanija stop. From there, head towards the waterfront, and you will see signs directing you to Rdeči svetilnik. It’s only a short walk from the bus stop to the lighthouse.

  • Bicycle

    For those who wish to cycle, rental bikes are available in Portorož. Begin your ride on the waterfront promenade, cycling south.
