About

Baška's great crescent: roughly 1,800 metres of natural fine pebble along the bay, one of the largest managed beaches on the Adriatic, with space for several thousand bathers. The gentle entry suits children and non-swimmers, and the infrastructure is complete — showers, playgrounds, an aquapark, SUP rental, parasailing and a long promenade of cafés. It is also genuinely busy: this is a big, social, full-service beach, not a hidden cove, and it is at its best in June and September.
