Our personal collection of beaches and island getaways - starting from easy access beaches, and well known, and to the wilder, more secluded spots to escape to.
Likely the most famous, yet busiest beach situated on the edge of Dubrovnik old town, minutes from everything. One side of the beach is occupied by the restaurant and beach bar with sun loungers for rent and other side is open to the public. Stairs access. Gets very busy in summer months. pebble and sand.
If you are ok with 160 steps.. this is another popular beach with a restaurant and bar, and a small amount of room for non-paying sun lounge guests. Nice view of Lokrum Island and Old town and longest sunshine hours.
25 min walk from Old town or 5 min drive. water taxi boats also go and drop you at the small pier which is handy for carrying all your great beach gear! you can also set up your comfy chairs on the pier.
Tip: just around the corner is the ruin of the Belvedere Hotel, and some swimming platforms there which is a locals hangout. Pretty cool.
20 min walk east of Old town. Also plenty of steep stairs to reach this swim area which is not a beach but an expanse of seaside rock formations, some filled in to make for comfortable sunbathing. Here for an umbrella you would need a stand. Our cushioned seats, floats, and piknik would be great here *but do think of carrying it back up! Excellent swimming here with ladders into the sea and views of Betina cave, Dubrovnik and Lokrum island directly across.
Used to be just locals but has been discovered somewhat but still far less crowded than Banje beach.

Our beloved Dubrovnik picnic and escape destination-this forested island is a perfect mediterranean escape, and only 15min hop by boat from the old town Dubrovnik. Rocky expanses and shores with ladders into the sea. Mystical monastery grounds, and peacocks wandering about. Shaded olive grove, and lovely walking trails that wind through the pines and up to a fort with spectacular views. The Dead Sea is often busy with kids but still a lovely spot to jump in. Lokrum island is really great for families, and even better if you bring your beach essentials and picnic with you!
10 min walk west of old town - accessed via Gradac park
A true local hangout, with a beach bar and area full of speedos and shouting over cold beers and card games. Rock platforms with ladders into the sea. Our cushions or mats would be good here with a few snacks in the backpack!
5 min walk west of old town via Pile neighborhood
Tiny local’s beach in a hugely dramatic setting. A narrow bay that is shouldered on each side by towering cliffs, and the Lovrijenac fortress on the left, beach bars on right.
This large beach in another area of urban Dubrovnik is about 15 min drive from Old town or bus number 6. It is a large beach, and in 2024 none of the concessions were open so there was plenty of room to put up an umbrella and settle in. Along the coast on each side there are nice spots on the rocks.
Everyone asks about a sandy beach - and this is the only one in the region so it does get busy with boats, and the beach is lined with beach bars for a beach and party day! Three island boat tours arrive in the droves. Lopud is lovely to explore, and is accessed by a ferry departing daily from Gruz harbour - then you must walk across the island to the beach 25 min, or hire a golf cart! Great day trip.
East of Dubrovnik, in the airport direction 1/2 hr drive is Konavle valley. The sea facing side of the valley is flanked by monumental cliffs, and some spectacular hidden beaches. Pasjace beach is one of those, that although named one of the best beaches in Europe by Forbes magazine, the cliff hugging path that leads to the beach through a short tunnel cave edits out alot of people. But, if you are the adventurous type its worth it!
TIP: loses sun early due to the cliff. no cell reception down there.
If you have wheels and feel like taking off, or are heading up the coast towards Split, Veliki Zali is a beach with nice pebbled shores and very clear water. There is a restaurant/bar area and parking. Nearby villages along the coast also have small beaches. This would be a great beach for umbrellas and chairs and floats, and a picnic!
One of the most stunning beaches on the stretch between Makarska and Ploce.
Pristine turquoise water, fringed by green pines, a large bay and pebbled beach with a small beach bar. Best to bring a picnic, umbrella, seats, and floats. Pay parking. has basic wc run by the bar.
Nude beaches are quite common in Croatia, but often the most wild and hidden. you can often spot signs leading to them stating FKK . Read about the history of nude beaches in my blog post, Kiss Me.

Dubrovnik old town rooftops view from city walls
Teammates for our epic sunset hike and gourmet picnic on Srd. Thumbs up to another company run by women!
All about rock climbing, the outdoors and exploring.
Don’t miss the coolest shop where all the interesting and unique design from throughout Croatia is under one roof.
“Hey, here are some of the photos from our trip to Mljet today! We found a nice shady spot on a beach, and enjoyed it in our kayak! It was perfect. ”
We careened down and around the sharp bends of the road to Rijeka, the bus like an overstuffed livestock truck that I swear was teetering on two of its wheels on some of the corners. Fur, horns and fists stuck out of the windows pounding the sides of the bus along to the still going strong marching band that was also crammed on board.
The only sound is the sea lazily brushing the shore a few strides from where I stand taking in the row of connected houses - the tiny Dalmatian village I had woken up to.
Brač island - rugged and vast, is an island of intense and affecting beauty. The show stealing beach, Zlatni Rat (Golden Horn), gets most of the attention, but what lies beyond the beach is what keeps Brač at the top of my choices for ideal island escapism.
Peljesac has that unpolished, truth and simplicity of rural life - something that is becoming harder to find in Dalmatia as everything gets dressed up for tourists. Call it rustic, call it old world charm - once you get a taste for this spot, you will wish you had more time.
For an easy and lovely day trip from Dubrovnik, head to Trsteno village.
“Dalmatia once again provided me with an enchanting mix of serenely beautiful nature, and a specific glance back into Dubrovnik history, complemented with a good dose of abandoned architecture that kept me wandering for hours.”
This one corner of many turns along the Dalmatian coast offers that great combination - history, atmospheric ruins, and a few good legends and stories - in a setting so beautiful you are surprised there is not a soul to be seen enjoying such a remarkable place.
Edgy filmmakers, live music, and Depp - all taking place in a very off grid location. Topped off with the challenge of getting there, and it sounded like the perfect distraction and cure for the crossroads in life I was at.
What does FKK mean?
Short stories and the everlasting tradition, and history of nudist beaches in Dalmatia, Croatia. It is more interesting than you’d think! And a bit of humour as well in this post. Don’t knock it until you’ve tried it!
“I have always supported local businesses; it’s part of the foundation of my business philosophy. I have a long roster of carefully selected local suppliers and entrepreneurs that I work closely with, both in the Dubrovnik region but also throughout Croatia.
Local farmers, fishermen, cheesemakers, bakers, family-run wineries. I have favourite specialty shops such as ‘Life According to Kawa,’ florists, event organisers, tour operators, private guides, sailing and boating companies, and my preferred hiking and adventure tour colleagues at Hiking Dubrovnik. The list goes on!
Most crucially, given the current times, we all need to work together to stay strong and survive.”
“Her love of outdoor adventures and appreciation of the local gourmet fare led her to create Piknik Dubrovnik where she guides guests along scenic hikes or aquatic excursions, punctuated by a picnic meal.
"Dubrovnik and the Dalmatian coast have an exceptional combination of history, natural beauty and a bountiful harvest," says Cram.”
Here are her favorite places to experience jaw-dropping sunsets, hillside hikes and memorable food and wine.
There are more than 1,000 islands off the coast of Croatia. From Dubrovnik, the most accessible is Lokrum, a 15-minute boat ride from the city’s Old Port (round-trip tickets, 120 kuna). The verdant little Lokrum has a botanical garden, the ruins of a medieval monastery and the remnants of an old fort. Instead of relying on the few food options on the island, take a picnic lunch. Piknik Dubrovnik offers insulated backpacks filled with locally produced prosciutto, cheese, bread, olives, fruit, homemade ginger-rosehip lemonade, as well as other products from around Croatia, such as unctuous kulen sausage from the region of Slavonia, and wine from Istria, among other edible and drinkable delights (550 kuna for two).
“Another viewpoint is Mt Srd. Piknik Dubrovnik (piknikdubrovnik.com) arranges private guided hikes to the top, where a beautifully presented picnic will await you.”
“Eating outdoors, more precisely in nature, always brings with it a series of actions that we need to take. Find plastic containers and glasses, prepare food, clean fruit, stock up on thermoses with coffee, tea, water or wine and happily head to your destination. All those “little things” are now a thing of the past because it can all be done by someone instead of you. Picnic Dubrovnik is a concept that offers you an absolutely unfettered picnic, and it's up to you to choose what you want to reward your palate with and where you want to go out.”
If you don’t have the time to garner the ingredients yourself then consider contacting Piknik Dubrovnik (piknikdubrovnik.com), who will assemble a luxury picnic from fresh produce and their own delicious extras, put it all in a rucksack complete with groundsheet or rug, and provide you with directions to the best places to eat it. They can also hook you up with local hiking guides so you can latch the picnic experience onto an invigorating nature walk.
‘Picnics are the best possible antidote to the tourist crowds of the Old Town, and make for the perfect escape’ says “Piknik Dubrovnik’s Alex Cram. ‘Great food and breathtaking landscapes are both so essential to the Dubrovnik experience and it makes sense to put both of these together in the same basket, as it were’. One of the things that Alex Cram has noticed is that picnics are increasingly popular with couples who want a romantic meal – a point particularly well-made when one considers the Dubrovnik region’s natural way with ambient aphrodisiacs - fragrant summer breezes, lapping waves, ravishing sunsets… If picnics are the food of love, then munch on.”
