**UN/LOCODE:** SI PIR  
**Country:** Slovenia

**Harbor Size:** Very Small  
**Harbor Type:** Coastal (Breakwater)

Unlike nearby Koper, Piran handles no commercial cargo: the breakwater-sheltered basin on Slovenia's brief Adriatic coast serves excursion craft, small fishing boats and cruise tenders rather than container or breakbulk traffic. Freight to or from Slovenia moves through the Port of Koper, roughly 15 km north-east, the country's only international cargo gateway with container, RoRo and bulk terminals. Piran offers no customs clearance for trade cargo and no meaningful road or rail hinterland link for shippers. For logistics planning, treat Piran as a passenger and leisure harbour and route commercial consignments via Koper.
