Although the beach is pleasant, there are a few hindrances that may detract from your experience. Finding a parking spot can be a challenge as you must park on the narrow roadside. Additionally, reaching the beach requires a short walk, so it's recommended to wear comfortable shoes. The cost of renting an umbrella and two sunbeds for the day is a bit steep, considering the lack of amenities available. The bar is a bit of an enigma as it was closed when we arrived, despite not bringing any food or drinks with us. We later learned that the owner often arrives via boat, so inclement weather may result in the bar being closed.

Embarking on a thrilling adventure, the first task is to secure a parking spot on the side of the road. The panoramic view from up high is absolutely breathtaking. Descending to the beach involves navigating through several routes, but the trek is no easy feat. The rocks can be quite slippery and the scorching heat made carrying my belongings even more challenging. The journey takes approximately 10-15 minutes. Upon arrival, the beach is a sight to behold - the pristine water is perfect for snorkeling. Thankfully, the beach wasn't too crowded when we visited. There's a single bar where you can purchase sandwiches and drinks. All in all, it was an unforgettable experience that I would love to relive.

This beach is an absolute gem! Although the path to get there is quite steep, it's well worth the effort. Be sure to wear appropriate shoes and take caution on the way down. You'll know you're on the right track when you see the blue arrow on the road and a line of parked cars. The views along the way are simply breathtaking, making the journey even more enjoyable. Be aware that there is no designated parking area, so you'll need to leave your car on the side of the road. It's also a good idea to bring your own food and drinks, as there are no other options available. Unfortunately, we didn't come across any toilets either. Despite these minor inconveniences, this beach is definitely worth a visit. The natural beauty and tranquility of the area make for an unforgettable experience. Don't miss out on the opportunity to explore this amazing place!

This stretch of natural beauty is undeniably stunning, but it has unfortunately become a victim of its own success. The influx of tourists has brought with it a slew of issues, including the never-ending struggle to find a parking spot along the road. And don't even get me started on the exorbitant prices for a measly parasol and two sun beds - you'd be better off heading to Krk for a better deal. Plus, many of the sun beds are broken, making for a less-than-ideal lounging experience. The beach bar is a sorry excuse for a refreshment stand, with limited options and steep prices that will leave you feeling robbed. And don't even think about finding a changing room or toilet - those luxuries are nowhere to be found. Maybe, just maybe, it would be worth it to visit during the off-season when it's less crowded and retains some of its wild charm. But during the high season, the hassle of it all just isn't worth it.

This stunning bay boasts a charming beach bar and crystal-clear water, offering a breathtaking view that will leave you in awe. It's advisable to bring some snacks along, as you won't want to leave this serene setting anytime soon. To access the beach, you can park your vehicle on the side of the road and make your way down the hill, so it's recommended to wear comfortable shoes. Overall, this beach is a must-visit for anyone seeking a tranquil and picturesque escape.
