The finest beaches
MAKARSKA · Beach
Nugal is an official FKK naturist beach near Makarska accessible via a 30–40 minute rocky walk, offering clear water and no facilities but requiring awareness of the long-standing nudist culture and social boundaries.
BRELA · Beach
Punta Rata, named one of the world's ten most beautiful beaches by Forbes, is a 250-metre white pebble beach in Brela offering exceptional water clarity, natural pine shade, and gentle seabed slopes ideal for families.
BRELA · Beach
Podrače is a 200-metre pebble beach 400 metres west of Punta Rata in Brela, offering crystal-clear water, gentle slopes ideal for families, and fewer crowds than its famous neighbor when visited early morning or in June/September.
Calm water in the coves. The Biokovo ridge at your back. Evenings on the riva. The details make the week.
The water
Clean coves and open bays — different each morning depending on wind and tide.
The pebbles
Fine shingle underfoot along much of the shore — pack water shoes if you prefer soft sand.
The ridge
Biokovo rises sharply behind the coast — hiking and views without leaving the riviera.
Brela
The quietest and most beautiful of the five — dense pine forest, untouched coves, and a village feel that chain hotels haven't reached yet.
Explore →Baška Voda
A small, elegant resort town with a long promenade, reliable ferry connections to Hvar, and a beach that starts directly below the old quarter.
Explore →Makarska
The Riviera's beating heart — a real Dalmatian town with a cathedral square, lively waterfront, best restaurants, and the most striking mountain backdrop.
Explore →Tučepi
Split between a hillside old village and a beach settlement below, with four kilometres of shore and the gentlest, family-oriented atmosphere on the coast.
Explore →Podgora
Authentically local, still largely undiscovered by international tourism, with a spectacular cliff-walk to an utterly wild bay south of town.
