I had the pleasure of staying at this beach for a total of three weeks, and I must say, it was an absolute delight. The beauty of this place is simply unmatched, and it's the perfect spot to unwind and relax. The atmosphere is serene, and the sound of the waves crashing against the shore is nothing short of therapeutic. Whether you're looking to soak up some sun, take a dip in the ocean, or simply enjoy the stunning views, this beach has it all. It truly is a wonderful place to spend some time, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway.

Ah, the beach. Such a lovely place to spend your days, surrounded by the natural beauty of small islands and lush greenery. And let's not forget the massive camping site, perfect for those who want to get up close and personal with nature. But don't worry, you won't be too far from civilization. The charming town of Vrsar is just a stone's throw away, providing the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience. Sure, the staff may not have everything perfectly organized, but who needs perfection when you have such friendly faces around? And let's not forget the overall vibe of the place - simply nice. So pack your bags, grab your sunscreen, and get ready for a beach adventure like no other.

Our stay at the Mobile Homes in Valkanela was nothing short of amazing! The beach was an absolute stunner, with its crystal-clear waters and pristine sand. Although I regret not capturing a photo, there were various areas with soft sand that were perfect for lounging and soaking up the sun. The beauty of the beach was truly breathtaking, with some areas being more rugged and wild, while others were calm and peaceful. The small marina added a touch of charm to the already picturesque scenery. Overall, our experience at the beach was unforgettable and we cannot wait to return.
