Love the sun and looking to just spend a day out by the sea? Dubrovnik’s got you covered! From a beach right by the old town to a beach formed during the war, there is so much to be explored and seen. Here is a list of beaches you can consider spending your time at when you visit!
Dance Beach
One of the oldest and most popular beaches in Dubrovnik, Dance Beach is about 5 minutes away from the Old Town. With amazing colours and transparent waters, a dip in this location offers a lower temperature and a view of the open seas. Ideal for hot summer days, this is the beach to be at to cool off and spend time soaking the sun! Be careful though, during windy days, the waters can be rough and is not recommended for confident swimmers as the waters run pretty deep.
Sveti Jakov Beach
Located just about a mile away from the Old Town, Sveti Jakov Beach is known to be one of the most beautiful beaches in the city. This tiny bay also boasts views of the island of Lokrum and the Old Town from afar. Popular amongst the locals, this beach offers a variety of water sports as well such as sea kayaking and jet-ski. For those looking to wind down and relax, a restaurant and a beach bar awaits!
Pasjaca Beach
Sitting on the Adriatic sea, Pasjaca Beach is not a natural beach albeit it being one of the most stunning! Formed during the second World War, this beach is slowly disappearing as the sea has since been eroding the sand. Located just below the village of Popovici, this beach is a must visit!
Copacabana Beach
Recommended for families, Copacabana Beach is a longest pebble beach in Dubrovnik which is popular amongst the locals to relax and spend time with their loved ones. With shallow waters, it is perfect for children to safely enjoy the waters as well. For those looking to take part in water sports, this is also the pick for you! Choose from waterpolo, surfing, banana ride and more.
Banje Beach
Right in front of the eastern entrance to Dubrovnik Old Town, you will find Banje Beach. Popular and well-visited by locals and tourists alike, this beach can get a little crowded especially in the summer. The appeal is definitely how accessible this beach is!
