This beach on island Pag is definitely one of the best. It's a small, hidden gem with sandy water and a long walkway leading to the sea. There's plenty of shade available until noon, and while it may be difficult to reach by car, the effort is definitely worth it.

Vlasici beach

The beach offers a combination of gravel and sand in the water, making for a unique and enjoyable experience. You can spend hours searching for seashells, adding to the charm of the location.

Additionally, free parking is available near the beach at the dock, but be sure to take the left turn at the Y intersection to avoid private parking fees in the nearby village. Simply follow the ferry sign to reach this idyllic location.
