It's common for beaches in Croatia to have pebbles instead of sand, and this one is no exception. However, what sets it apart is the crystal-clear and mesmerizingly blue sea. It's a sight to behold and a refreshing escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

The beach offers a range of small, purposeful sections to explore and unwind by the water's edge. Additionally, the light, fine pebbles provide a comfortable surface for lounging.

This beach is a common public spot, lacking in sand but still a delightful location to take a refreshing dip in the ocean.

If you happen to be in the vicinity, this is a charming spot to stop by. The beach may be compact, but it offers a delightful pathway to stroll along, with a handful of appealing bars and restaurants to choose from. The atmosphere is quite vibrant after sundown, making it an exciting place to be in the evenings.

This stunning beach is conveniently located just off the highway, but it's easy to overlook if you're not paying attention. Finding parking can be a bit of a challenge, but it's well worth it. We decided to visit during the quieter hours, just as the sun was beginning to set. The warm water and peaceful atmosphere made for a truly magical experience. There are plenty of options for refreshments, including a charming coffee bar and various small shops right on the beach. Despite its popularity, this hidden gem remains a peaceful and relaxing spot.
