User reviews
"The beach in Korcula is an absolute gem! The water is crystal clear and the crowds are minimal, making it a perfect spot to unwind and soak up the sun. It's best to arrive early to secure a spot under an umbrella or on a sun-bed, as they tend to fill up quickly. Overall, this beach is a must-visit for anyone looking for a peaceful and rejuvenating escape."
Sami Alawi
"The beach is definitely worth a visit, especially for the breathtaking view you get while descending towards the shore. However, it is advisable to bring along something for shade if you require it, as the beach can get quite sunny. Overall, it is a pleasant spot to spend some time and soak up the sun."
