Fiesa is a pleasant place for a holiday and relaxation with
walk along the coast. Info-board displays: "The Fiesa meres were formed
due to the digging of clay needed by the former brickworks. The smaller
secluded fresh water mere is situated right beneath the slopes and is up
to 6.5 m deep. The larger mere is deeper and filled with brackish water,
for from 1963 it has been linked with the sea. With their banks overgrown
with a wide belt of reed and other riparian plants, the meres offer a safe
shelter to fish, marsh birds and especially to some twenty rare and endangered
dragonfly species. Due to their great ecologic value they have been included
in the list of the most important natural heritage in Slovenia and 1989
proclaimed a natural monument."
