The most beautiful natural sites to discover Îles Croates

South of the island of Vis, the narrow cove of Stiniva was voted "best beach in Europe" in 2016 by the readers of a Brussels tourist portal (European Best Destinations). And that's understandable. This natural site, protected since 1967, is bordered by massive cliffs that leave a passage to the sea of only 4m. This gives it an intimate, paradisiacal look, and warmer water than anywhere else. A 20-minute walk on the rocks leads to the creek. A slightly sporty descent but it's worth the detour!

Beautiful sea promenade that follows the contour of the bay. Between the port and the Roman villa near the Waterman Svpetrvs Resort, here is indeed a large and well laid out coastline with a lot of places to swim or relax: small or bigger beaches, pontoons to jump in the water... You will find along the Supetar bay children's playgrounds, beach bars, restaurants... To return to the port, the inland road, very commercial (supermarkets, tourist shops), is less attractive.

Plaža Vela is one of the most famous beaches on the island. It is as if the beach is an integral part of the resort. It stretches for 2 km, offering its blonde sand, clear water and generally calm to holidaymakers. It is ideal for families with children, for those who love sunbeds. It is therefore very popular in summer! In the immediate vicinity there is a large camping site and the Baška Funny Park.

By road, discover the north coast of Ciovo. The Bura-Line boats for Slatinus stop in Arbanija. The opportunity to swim at the beach of Kava, 4 km east of Slatinus and find quiet beach bars, the Palandara buffet for example (Arbanija).

5 km from the town centre, to the south of the peninsula of Čiovo, this sandy beach, 2 km long is the most popular in the corner! On site, a water sports club, beach bars, restaurants and parasols.

It is a beach of sand and gravel shaded by a pine forest, that the people of Trogir or Split are visiting. Take bus # 37 for Split.

From Vis Port, follow the long waterfront path to the east, bordered by old and newer summer residences. Towards the end of the walk, after the village of Kut, we arrive at the Grandovac peninsula. Walk past the church and the former Czech property (VillaTopič), once glorious in the past, which is now abandoned and gently squatted by the young people. The cove is protected from the breeze by the pine forest that dominates it, and can be seen below at the beach bar. Crystal clear water, white pebbles, cicadas in the tamarisk trees..
