The beach was decently clean and the water seemed acceptable, but it was not a place to write home about. Fortunately, it wasn't too crowded when we visited, but that's not saying much. It's worth noting that dogs are strictly prohibited from setting foot on the sand. There were a few spots under trees that offered some respite from the sun, but they were few and far between. Be warned that parking is a costly affair, with a fee of 5 kuna per hour, and only payable through card or app - no coins allowed. Overall, we managed to pass the time, but it was hardly a memorable experience.

The beach offers on-site parking at a rate of 5kn per hour. Unfortunately, the showers are currently out of order due to a shortage of water. However, the water itself is exceptionally clean and there are various areas to relax on including the lawn, sand, and stone. Additionally, there is a charming little restaurant on the premises.

This beach is truly exceptional. While other nearby beaches may be plagued with rough, unmanageable waves, this one remains a serene and tranquil oasis. The water is crystal clear and perfectly placid, making it ideal for swimming and relaxation. Shade is plentiful, providing a respite from the sun's rays, and there is plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the scenery.

A lovely destination that is not overly populated, providing ample space to relax and unwind. The water is pristine and pleasantly warm during the summer season.

This serene and picturesque beach is a hidden gem, surrounded by lush pine trees that provide a natural canopy of shade. Although it may require water shoes to navigate the pebbly shoreline, the crystal-clear waters are a refreshing escape from the scorching sun. While snorkeling may not be the best activity here, this is a common occurrence along the Umag coast due to the slightly murky water conditions. Nonetheless, the tranquil atmosphere and stunning scenery make this beach a must-visit destination for anyone seeking a peaceful and idyllic retreat.

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Kastanija beach (Istria County) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Kastanija beach (Istria County) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Kastanija beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
