Camping Adria Ankaran – a seaside campsite in Slovenia

Camping Adria Ankaran is a large, well-equipped campsite located directly on the Adriatic Sea in the village of Ankaran on the Slovenian coast. Located near the historic town of Koper and close to the Italian border, it is ideal for both a longer seaside holiday and a base for exploring the Slovenian coast, Istria, and nearby Italy.

The campsite is part of the Adria Ankaran Hotel & Resort , so guests have access to the entire complex's facilities. This includes a beach, an Olympic-sized outdoor seawater pool, an indoor heated seawater pool, a wellness center, restaurants, sports facilities, and children's attractions. You can stay in a pitch for a camper, caravan, or tent, or opt for glamping and mobile home rentals.

Adriatic Sea plots – also in the first line with a sea view

Camping Adria Ankaran offers a wide selection of pitches for campers, caravans, and tents . You can choose a pitch near the sea, in full sun, or in the shade of large trees. All pitches have electricity, and Wi-Fi is available throughout the campsite.

The front-line seafront pitches in Zone 5 are particularly attractive. They range in size from approximately 90 to 110 square meters, and six of them are located directly on the beach. Most are sunny, but some are partially shaded.

Zone 4 offers pitches in the second, third, and fourth rows from the sea. Those looking for more space can choose XL Pitches, which are approximately 90–120 m² . The campsite also offers pitches near the Adria Wellness Center and heavily shaded pitches providing 70–100% shade.

Green campsite by the sea in Slovenia

One of the distinguishing features of Camping Adria Ankaran is the abundance of greenery. Over 1,500 trees grow throughout the resort, and large pines, cedars, and Mediterranean vegetation provide natural shade on some pitches and by the beach.

This gives Adria Ankaran the character of a green seaside resort, despite offering extensive infrastructure. Here, you can find both spots close to the heart of holiday life and quieter pitches in the shade of trees.
