Pupnatska Luka

What a splendid beach! It boasts two charming cafes/bars and doesn't get too crowded, which is a real treat. Although parking can be a bit pricey, ranging from 30-50 khuna, the beach's exceptional snorkeling opportunities make it more than worth it.

The beach is amazing! If you're driving, don't follow Google's instructions. Instead, look for the pupnatska luka sign and follow that road. The road is in good condition and comes from the southeast part of the island. At the end of the road, above the beach, you'll find a paid parking lot that costs 30kn per day (according to other people's photos), but as of September 16th, it was free and there was plenty of space. On the beach, there's plenty of room to spread out, and the water is still warm enough for swimming. The beach has everything you need, including great sand and clear water that's perfect for diving. Plus, the view and nature around it are stunning. There's a toilet available, and there's also a cool place to grab a drink, although it was closed when I visited.

The beach labeled as Instagram-worthy is undeniably stunning, but upon closer inspection, it falls short of expectations. The presence of litter such as plastic bottles, bags, and cigarette butts, as well as styrofoam, mars the otherwise picturesque scenery. The water is also murky and contains small bits of plastic. Additionally, the parking situation is less than ideal, with a fee of 30kn enforced at the entrance and only cash accepted at the bar. However, visitors can opt to park before the sign and walk down for free. It's worth noting that Google's suggested route leads to a gravel road, so it's best to follow the sign labeled pupnatska Luka, which leads to a paved road.

The beach is really great and offers a fantastic view from the bar. You can rent two beds for 12 € (90kn-2022) and there are at least two bars available that serve fast food and drinks. It's a perfect spot for both kids and couples to enjoy.

The pristine waters of the sea are crystal clear and the breathtaking scenery is awe-inspiring. The beach is adorned with smooth, rounded pebbles that add to its charm. While there are some shaded areas on the beach, they only enhance the overall experience. Although parking and beach chairs are charged by the day, there is a konoba and restaurant available so you don't have to worry about bringing your own food. The peaceful and tranquil atmosphere is so inviting that one could easily spend days there without getting bored. The beach tends to get busier in the afternoon, with more people arriving after 12 pm.
