About

A U-shaped cove four kilometres from Ston where a 300-metre sand beach sits in an amphitheatre of pine forest and old olive groves. The bay doubles as the ferry port for Mljet, which brings a rhythm of comings and goings without turning the beach itself busy; the campsite behind provides showers, a shop and a bar. Sheltered, gently shelving and easy to reach off the Ston–Orebić road, it is one of southern Dalmatia's most straightforward family sand beaches.
