The Miramare Biosphere Reserve and Marine Reserve is situated about 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) km from the city of Trieste on the Gulf of Trieste close to the Slovenian border. It represents a rocky promontory of karst with coastal cliffs and beaches. Marine habitats of special interest from a conservation perspective are the tidal zone which harbours many endemic species, such as Fucus virsoides, and undisturbed cliffs with a diverse benthic fauna. The aim of the biosphere reserve is to maintain biological diversity in the marine environment surrounding Trieste through scientific research and monitoring activities. Environmental education designed for students and the public is also a major activity in the area. This small biosphere reserve (290 hectares) is not inhabited, however many tourists enjoy underwater tours or visit the castle and garden of the Habsburg family. Both commercial and amateur fishing as well as other recreational activities infringe on the marine habitat. One of the challenges of the biosphere reserve is to involve all stakeholders such as traditional fishermen and the local community, tourism industry, non-governmental organizations, universities and municipalities in the management of the biosphere reserve. The area is managed by the Italian World Wildlife Fund on behalf of Italy’s Ministry of the Environment and Protection of the Territory.

The Dajla monastery is a former Benedictine early medieval monastery located in the hamlet of Dajla in the town of Novigrad in Croatia. The Benedictines established the monastery in the place of already existing Basilian monastery in the early Middle Ages. They owned the monastery until the late 13th century when it became a possession of the Sabini family. The Sabini family expanded the monastery's possessions and owned it until 1736 when it was inherited by the related Grisoni family. The Grisoni family donated it to the Benedictines from the Praglia Abbey in 1841. The Benedictine intensified the economic activities of the monastery, exporting agricultural products. They abandoned the monastery after World War II, which became the state ownership in 1947. In 1999 the monastery wasa given to the current owner, the Diocese of Poreč-Pula. In 2006, the Benedictines filed a lawsuit requesting the return of the monastery from the Diocese of Poreč-Pula, however, their lawsuit was dismissed by the court in 2015.
