User reviews
"The beach doesn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary, unfortunately. It appears that the maintenance of the beach is lacking, as evidenced by the abundance of dead seaweed. Additionally, it's disappointing to note that the beach bars don't offer basic amenities such as coffee. However, the sand in the sea is absolutely lovely. The view from the sea is truly breathtaking."

It boasts an incredibly long sandbar, making it an ideal spot for beach lovers. You can easily reach this paradise by taking a bus from Brbinj, where the ferries dock. This makes it an excellent day trip option from Zadar or a must-visit destinat..."
