The stunning Zlatni rat beach situated in Croatia has garnered significant attention for its unique shape and remarkable beauty. Renowned publications such as the New York Times, National Geographic, and Insider Travel have all featured it as one of the most extraordinary beaches globally, making it a must-visit destination for travelers seeking a memorable experience.
The charm and attractiveness of Zlatni rat have made it not only a representation of Bol and Croatia but also a geomorphological monument protected by the Croatian government. Its beauty and singularity are not merely due to its shape, though. The beach is encircled by crystal-clear waters that range from turquoise blue to deep blue within a mere 10-20 meters, while decades-old pine trees planted by the locals provide natural shade.
Less than 2 kilometers away from Bol town, lies a beautiful beach that can be reached by walking through a charming promenade shaded by tall pine trees. The beach has a distinctive design, resembling a small peninsula stretching into the sea, surrounded by over 500 meters of pebbled coastlines on both ends. With an area of more than 20,000 square meters, this beach can accommodate more than 10,000 people comfortably. Additionally, several tiny beaches can be found along the promenade, making it a perfect spot for beach lovers.
What’s interesting about this beach is that it’s shape and location are constantly shifting due to the wind, tide, and current. Sometimes, the end of the beach even forms a little pool because of how drastically it turns. Mornings are generally calm, but the wind usually picks up in the afternoon. However, one side of the beach always has calm water which makes it great for families with young kids.
