I had high expectations for the renowned beach on the island of Hvar, but unfortunately, it fell short. While the entrance appears inviting, it is actually quite rocky, with large boulders scattered throughout the sea. The water is also noticeably colder than other beaches, and the presence of numerous small vessels and sailboats can be overwhelming. However, I did appreciate the availability of affordable sun umbrellas and chairs, priced at a reasonable 100 kunas for the entire day. On the downside, the tobacco shop remained closed for most of the day, and the gadget and toy shop was overpriced and disappointing. Thankfully, parking was easy to find and reasonably priced. The beach now boasts a newly opened restaurant, flanked by older establishments on either side. In summary, I rate this beach three stars, as the entrance to the sea is not clean or soft, and the proximity of sailboats and small ships to the swimming area is concerning.
