For some time at the beach, head to the small town of Rabac, which was once a small fishing village on Kvarner Bay but in recent years has grown into a popular resort town, known for its pebble beaches and clear, blue sea.
Girandella Beach is one of the top beaches here, as the clarity of the water beyond it is stunning. It is a great place to go for a swim or try snorkeling or diving as the fish are plentiful.
You can also book boat excursions into the surrounding bay here. The beach itself is pebble and there is little shade, but you can hire sun loungers and umbrellas in the summer. It can fill up quickly.
