Pacug
Pacug is a stretch of coast just east of Fiesa, on the way towards Strunjan bay. The underwater terrain is varied: a steep wall, broken rocks full of crevices and sandy slopes, so the dive can be planned at different depths for different experience levels. Crabs, octopus and cuttlefish hide among the rocks, and sea bream, sea bass and sardine shoals move along the slope.

- Unverified: Unverified: only one dive centre describes the site and gives no depths or exact entry point; the point is placed just off the Pacug shore using OpenStreetMap. The centre places Pacug in Sečovlje Salina Nature Park, but the Strunjan park says its marine area extends to Pacug.
- Tips: Guided by Nemo Divers (listed among its guided shore dives with Fiesa and Punta). The coast here belongs to Strunjan Landscape Park, whose marine part covers Strunjan bay up to Pacug – take nothing and do not damage pen shells.
