Kavarna Kapitanija

Koper


A number of all-day cafe-bars face the water along Pristaniška ulica. This chilled-out, tropical-ish space, with its open terrace and wicker lounges, would be even more inviting if the souvenir kiosks didn’t mar the harbour view. Still, coffee, juices, cocktails and ice creams help to compensate.
