Latest reviews on Benkovac's beaches

Jazina II beach
4 Vee Bee

Unfortunately, we didn't enjoy it enough to stay overnight. The owner is friendly and personable, and they even speak German fluently. Additionally, you can reserve a spot without any charge. However, that's where the positives end. The campground had several long-term campers, but it felt messy to everyone. We also didn't like the parking spaces that were available for tourists to book. Furthermore, our experience was further dampened when a rat ran across our pitch in broad daylight while we were parking. The water and the overall environment around the campsite were not appealing either. We were genuinely surprised by the numerous positive reviews. This was the first time we actually used the toilet during our trip. After this incident, we learned the importance of following the camper rule: knowing where you'll sleep the next night by 4 p.m.
