Average rating of nearest beaches is 7.8 (Very good)

It is difficult to think of any entertainment and activities when you are on the beach. To swim, to sunbathe, to drink a couple of cocktails, again to swim and again to sunbathe, the variety usually is very limited. But on Dance beach you can test yourself in such an activity as water jumping. It's fun and it's scary, the rest you have to experience on your own.

In most cases, the question What to do on Dance beach implies the presence of any excursions or attractions near the beach. Of course in this area there are lots of places to go besides the beach. There are historical, entertainment and even gastronomic tours offered by local guides. More information is better to clarify directly on the spot.

The beach is stunning with rocky terrain, but it's located a bit off the beaten path, so it tends to be less crowded.

This secluded paradise is simply enchanting. The crystal-clear waters are breathtakingly beautiful and the tranquility is unbeatable. It's best to arrive early to secure a spot and avoid the hustle and bustle of the crowds. The cozy café is the perfect spot to indulge in refreshing drinks and delectable ice creams. However, keep in mind that they don't serve food. Without a doubt, this was the highlight of our vacation.

In the morning and early afternoon, this beach is an idyllic destination that exudes tranquility and serenity. A small bar serving soft drinks and beer is available for refreshment, and free toilets and showers with drinking water are provided for convenience. However, it must be noted that the beach is not particularly accommodating for disabled individuals.

This is an amazing place to swim, although it's important to note that there is no sand or pebbles, only rocks leading into the water. However, it's perfect for relaxing and reading, and the swimming is unbeatable. The area is very private and peaceful, with a restroom available. It's an ideal spot to watch the sunset, as it faces directly west, and the water remains warm for a while. The only challenge is locating it, as it requires walking through a car park and past a monastery.

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Dance beach (Dubrovnik-Neretva 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 Dance beach (Dubrovnik-Neretva 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 Dance 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.
