Brijesta - all beaches

The beach was absolutely lovely, with plenty of water attractions that kept the kids entertained for hours. What really sets this beach apart from the others we visited on Pelješac is the soft, sandy floor that makes walking and playing in the water a real pleasure. However, it must be said that the beach was quite crowded when we visited, which may not be to everyone's taste.

The beach has a lot of shade and isn't very clean. While the views are pleasant, there are better beaches to visit on the peninsula.

The beach is really lovely and peaceful, with crystal clear water and plenty of shade throughout the day. The only issue is parking, as you have to leave your car in the village and walk for about 10 minutes.

This beach, once a stunning natural wonder, has been sadly transformed into a dumping ground. If you visit, bring a bag and do your part to help clean up the mess.

Located in a quaint fishing village, this public beach is a hidden gem. However, finding parking can be a challenge as most spaces are reserved for private use. While there are no shops or restrooms on site, the smell of fresh mussels permeates the air. Early morning visitors can purchase mussels and oysters, which make for a delicious dinner when cooked with onions, garlic, olive oil, and white wine. In fact, we were able to buy 5kg of mussels for only HK50 and enjoyed a truly delightful meal.

This beach is a great option for spending the entire day. The bar and restaurant offer good quality at reasonable prices. It used to be a natural beach a few years ago, but now it has been properly developed for commercial purposes. Parking is free and there is ample space for those who prefer not to rent sunbeds and parasols. The food is delicious and the portions are generous. It's worth mentioning that they have a local wine selection, which is commendable. When you're by the sea, it's important to try wines from the south rather than from the continent because the south of Croatia is an underrated wine region with some of the best autochthonous grape varieties in the world, which have spread from America to Australia. Additionally, there is a small aqua park available for a fee of 7 euros for the entire day. The sea is clean and you can see all the way to the bottom. I highly recommend this beach, especially if you're looking for a stretch along the coast between Gradac and Dubrovnik. Of course, we should exclude those two places and the Pelješac peninsula.
