User reviews
"This Croatian beach is truly stunning, although it can be a bit narrow at times. It's only a 10-minute drive away, but finding parking on the road can be a challenge. Additionally, the beach is covered in light, fine pebbles that make for a unique and enjoyable experience."

"This beach is a small cove made up of gravel and stones. It's known for its red rocks, small caves, and stunning view of the islet of Dolin. The only downside is that the path to get there can be a bit slippery, and there are no services available, not even baskets."

Is the beach good for sunbathing?
Ribon beach (Rab island) 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 Ribon beach (Rab island) 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 Ribon beach 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.
