"We managed to secure tickets for the ferry to Goli in the Lopar port on short notice. It's truly remarkable, and naturally, one wonders what it must have been like there in the past. Regrettably, many things have been destroyed and stolen over time due to the deterioration of nature. The island could have potentially been transformed into a memorial site with guided tours. H..."

Is the beach good for sunbathing?
Goli otok (Primorje-Gorski Kotar County) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Goli otok (Primorje-Gorski Kotar County) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Goli otok for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
