Swimming above a shipwreck in a gorgeous bay is a delightful experience, and the water isn't too deep. Additionally, it's worth noting that the beach has a concrete covering.

The beach provides a wonderful chance to observe a larger vessel submerged in the water.

The beach is situated at a short distance from the park and boasts of a beautiful bay. However, the entry fee of 30 HRK per person seems to be a bit steep according to my opinion. The walking path leading to the bay is well-maintained and stony, with a width of around 1 meter. It is possible to walk with beach slippers without any difficulty. The journey to the bay takes approximately 20-30 minutes, but along the way, one can explore a WW2 shipwreck submerged just a few meters below the surface. Snorkeling gear, face masks, or swimming goggles are highly recommended to make the most of this experience. The beach tends to be a bit crowded, but there are some pine trees along the walking path that provide ample shade. However, the only available amenity is a toilet that unfortunately emits a terrible stench.

This beach is a true gem, located just a short 30-minute stroll from the hilltop parking lot. The beginning of the tourist trail is a mere 200 meters from the parking area, making it an easily accessible destination for all. The natural beauty of the bay is simply breathtaking, and the tranquil atmosphere is perfect for a relaxing day in the sun. Overall, this beach is a must-visit for anyone seeking a peaceful and picturesque escape.

This stunning beach is a must-visit destination. To fully enjoy its beauty, it's best to arrive early in the day to avoid the crowds of commercial establishments and their patrons that flood the area later on. Be sure to make your way up to the viewpoint for an incredible aerial perspective of the beach. Keep in mind that as part of a National Park, there are certain regulations in place, though it seems that many visitors choose to disregard them.
