About

The polished entrance to Pula's Verudela peninsula: a pebble beach with an easy, gradual entry, all-day lifeguards, marked swimming boundaries and mature trees for shade — the full-service urban resort beach done properly. It flies the Blue Flag in 2026, as it has for the better part of two decades, per the official Istria County list. Sunbeds, cabins, showers, water-sports gear and two snack bars cover everything else; expect genuine crowds on hot weekends, and consider mornings.
