Have you ever been to Croatia and want to try something else? There is still much to discover! Or you are going there for the first time and you don’t know to choose the right place? Just for your information, 116 beaches in Croatia received the prestigious Blue Flag label.
However, the country has 1,778 km of coastline with over a thousand islands. So I agree that it is really hard to choose the best one. I prepared a list of the 10 best and most beautiful beaches in Croatia below.
1.) Paradise beach, Lopar – Island Rab
Rab Island offers beaches for everyone – from the cliffs to the sandy shore. The last one, about 2 km long Paradise beach, located on Lopar Peninsula. It features a smooth sand and clean water, heated to 28 °C in the middle of summer.
The sea is more shallow. A short distance from shore are pine trees, where you can hide from the sun.
2.) Veli Zal, Sunčana Uvala – Lošinj Island
Beach Veli Zal can be found in the bay Suncana Uvala on the island of Losinj. It is about a kilometer from the centre of the town Mali Lošinj. Bay protects the beach from the wind.
It consists of pebbles that offer easy access to the sea. Around the beach is the promenade that stretches along the south side of the island.
3.) Punta, Omiš – Central Dalmatia
Omiš is a paradise for children, situated only a few kilometers south of Split. As the Croatian coast is mainly stony, this beach is the exception!
It consists of fine sand delivered by the river Cetina. The beach is more than a kilometer long and has very slow access into the sea.
4.) Nin lagoon, Nin – Northern Dalmatia
City of Nin, situated north of Zadar, is one of the oldest cities in Croatia. It offers many historical monuments. For us, however, more important are the beaches now.
They are closed in the Gulf and such protected from the wind. Shallow water is therefore always about 2-3 degrees warmer than on the open sea. The beaches are sandy with a gentle descent, and are therefore ideal both for children or elderly people.
Much of the coastline is rocky; you need to do some research, if you want a sandy beach.
Amazing post, very awesome photos. Thanks for this post which inspire me once again!
I read some posts in other blogs about the best beach in Crotia, they claim that Nin Lagoon is the most perfect compare to other beaches. It seems true when I take a look at the pictures of Nin Lagoon
