The beach is alright, offering views of the city and a few mountains. The water in the bay is less salty due to the nearby river KRK flowing into the sea. It's the only beach suitable for sunbathing, and it's easily accessible by foot if you're staying in the old city.

The beach is beautiful, although it can be quite uncomfortable to walk on due to the sharp stones if you're not wearing any shoes or slippers. However, the nearby café is lovely and has a wide selection of food and drinks (except on Sundays). They make a fantastic Aperol Spritz, and you can enjoy a pleasant view of the city from there.
