Do you want to spend your holidays swimming in the ocean or just lying down on the sand? If so, you might want to head out for the Croatia beaches, which are among the best beaches in the world.
Croatia beaches come in all sizes and kinds. There are small beaches and wide beaches. There are white sandy beaches and gravel beaches. There are nudist beaches, too. Indeed, no matter what kind of beach you’re looking for, you’ll find it along Croatia’s one-mile long shoreline. You can explore its over 1,000 islands on the Adriatic Sea, as well.
One of the tourists’ favorite Croatia beaches is the Brela Beach – which comes as no surprise since it has been named the best beach in Europe. Located along the Makarska coast, Brela Beach offers six kilometres of gravel-like sand and Mediterranean crystal waters, as well as many coves backed by shady pine trees. These coves provide the perfect romantic hideaway for couples spending their honeymoon in Croatia.
Paradise Beach is also a famous tourist destination. Located in the village of Lopar, it is the most popular of Rab Island’s 22 sandy beaches. It also has a shallow bay, making it the perfect beach for beginners or young swimmers.
Considered one of the most romantic Croatia beaches, the Lubenice Beach on Cres Island is also worth a visit. Although hidden and isolated, it is a popular yachting destination. It is also well known for the aquatic life waiting to be discovered beneath its clear waters.
Is windsurfing one of your favorite beach activities? If you answered yes, you better make it a point to spend a day at Zlatni Rat Beach. Of all the Croatia beaches, Zlatni Rat Beach is the best spot for windsurfing, as well as another of Europe’s best beaches. This is because the appearance of its pebbly cape changes according to the direction of the waves and the wind – a unique occurrence which offers tourists various opportunities to swim or bathe in the sun.
On the other hand, if you like diving, Trstenik Beach is the spot for you. Located on the Peljesac peninsula, the Trstenik Beach is well known for its diving center which allows tourists to experience Croatia’s stunning underwater wildlife. It is also a relatively tranquil cove.
Croatia has other attractions, as well, such as the magnificent Diocletian Palace and the Plitvice Lakes Natural Park. However, if you truly want a memorable vacation in Croatia, then you shouldn’t skip out on the Croatia beaches. After all, they are the best beaches not only in Europe but all over the world.
