Reviewed By LulaLLL - Moncalvo, Italy
Free beach with a nice bar playing nice music all the time. You can sit for free at the bar's lounge or rent your own place (90 or 200 kunas per day depending on the site). Of course dogs are more than welcome and a special shower for them is available for free, as well as bowls for your furry friend. Some dogs are off the leash, some on the leash, you can choose what you prefer, as long as tranquility is preserved. We loved playing in the sea with other dogs, making new nice friends every day and enjoying good drinks in the shadow. A nice swing close to the rocks, drinks for dogs as well. Staff is always kind and happy. I am still dreaming of my little paradise, we loved it! The easiest and nicest beach for dogs and humans ever seen.
