Beste tid å besøke

Afternoon hours from 3 PM when the morning crowd dissipates and the sun takes on a golden hue through the pine branches. September is the ideal month because the sea is still warm, but the beach is ten times quieter than in July.

Budsjettips

The beach is completely free. Parking costs about 1 euro per hour during the season. Bring your own food and drinks as prices at the nearby cafe are twice as high as in Umag, which is 8 kilometers away.

Anbefalt for

Families with children, Couples seeking peace, Nature lovers and pine forest enthusiasts, Anyone escaping mass tourism

Om

Raske fakta: Med 25 meters bredde og over 300 meters lengde er denne grusstranden en av de mest romslige på Istrias kyst. Den tiltrekker årlig over 150 000 besøkende som kommer for det krystallklare havet og den naturlige skyggen fra furuskogen som strekker seg nesten helt ned til vannet.

Høydepunkter: Det spesielle med denne stranden ligger i fiskehistorien: lokale fiskere trekker fortsatt sine små båter opp på grusen nøyaktig der oldefedrene deres gjorde det. Lukten av furuharpiks blandet med salt luft skaper en unik aroma som du ikke vil finne på noen annen strand i Istria.

Insidertips

Bring water shoes because the pebbles at the water's edge are larger and can be uncomfortable for bare feet.
The best angle for a photo is from the south side of the beach at 6 PM when the sunset casts golden light through the pine branches.
Avoid the beach on weekends in July and August. It is quietest on weekdays before 10 AM or after 4 PM.
It is in the shade of pines for almost the entire day, so bring a lower factor sunscreen than you would bring to open beaches.
