Croatia<\/strong><\/a> is famous for its impressive coastline with the most beautiful beaches and idyllic coves. The clear water immediately invites you to dive in. In many places, the beach slopes gently into the sea, making the beaches in Croatia very child-friendly.

Most have been given the Blue Flag for neatness, safety and excellent amenities.<\/strong><\/p>\n

What kind of beaches are there in Croatia?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

There are various kinds of beaches in Croatia. Sandy beaches are relatively rare, since most of the beaches have pebbles. There are also various rocky beaches and beaches with lots of stones to be found along the Croatian coast. We would love to tell you more about the most beautiful sand and pebble beaches of Croatia.<\/p>\n

\"Beautiful<\/p>\n

Pebble beach<\/em> \u2013 A distinction is made between ordinary pebble beaches and fine-pebble beaches. The fine-pebble beaches are very similar to a sandy beach and often have a mixture of pebbles and sand. Pebble beaches have the advantage of very clear seawater, making them perfect for snorkelling and diving. At these campsites in Croatia<\/strong><\/a>, you camp right on the pebble beach.<\/p>\n

Sandy beach<\/em> \u2013 There are less natural sandy beaches than pebble beaches on the Croatian Adriatic Sea, but they do exist. Small children often feel more comfortable on a sandy beach because that feels softer than a pebble or rocky beach. And, of course, because you can build sand castles! Some campsites have a sandy beach, which means that you can camp right on the beach. Here is where you will find the most beautiful campsites<\/strong><\/a> that are located right on a sandy beach.<\/p>\n

Let us tell you which beaches you absolutely must not miss on your holiday.<\/p>\n\n

The Golden Horn: Zlatni Rat \u2013 Island of Bra\u010d, Dalmatia<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Insider tip: Sveti Ivan \u2013 Cres, Kvarner Gulf<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"Sveti<\/p>\n

The picturesque bay of Sveti Ivan on the island of Cres is a real insider tip. The desolate pebble beach has unspoilt nature on one side and the clear blue sea on the other. The beach is not very easy to reach, which is why it is still so untouched and pure. You can only get there by boat or by foot. A steep hiking trail goes from Lubenice village to the bay, for which you will have to set aside an hour. The way back goes up, making the walk even longer. Sturdy hiking shoes are recommended.<\/p>\n

It is easier to reach the bay with your own boat or with an excursion boat from Cres. Once you have arrived, an idyllic pebble beach with turquoise water awaits. Would you like to stay in the neighbourhood of this beautiful bay for the night? Camping Slatina<\/strong><\/a> is located on the island of Cres, not far from the bay. Within forty-five minutes of driving, you will be diving into the azure-blue water of the Sveti Ivan bay. Enjoy the peace and quiet and the beauty of nature on one of the most beautiful beaches of Croatia.<\/p>\n\n
