Beaches in Dubrovnik are modest. You won't find vast sweeps of sand but you will find sparkling water and a clean stretch of rocks, pebbles or gravel to throw down your towel. Locals generally head to the islands of Lokrum or Lopud but there are closer options.

     

Banje Beach

Banje Beach is the closest beach to the Old Town which makes it the most convenient beach and the beach with the best view of Dubrovnik's walls. It's a "managed beach" which means that you can rent lounge chairs and umbrellas from the nearby EastWest Club but you can also throw a beach towel on the gravel.


Copacabana Beach

No, it will not remind you of Rio, but this is a perfectly pleasant beach on the Babin Kuk peninsula. It's a great family beachCopacabana beach, Babin Kuk because the water is relatively shallow and there's a toboggan for the kids. Sporty types will enjoy the waterskiing, windsurfing and other watersports.

Lapad Beaches

Beach in front of the Hotel KompasOn the Lapad peninsula, beaches are found in front of the big hotels. Yet, they are open to all. A line of pebble beaches stretch from the Hotel Splendid to the Hotel Kompas.


Sv Jakov Beach

Few tourists know about it but locals love this beach. Head east from Ploce gate and go past the Hotel Argentina. Go past the former monastery and take the long stairway leading down to this secluded beach.
