1. Proizd beach on Proizd island

In 2007 this beach was named the best beach on the Croatian Adriatic. No wonder, considering the fact that the sea here is crystally clear and of an unreal turquoise color. It's surrounded by pine wood one must first pass through to get to the beach. This is a pebbly beach, surrounded with big and flat stones make the surroundings even more romantic.

Proizd is unsettled which makes it perfect for all of you who want to experience the wilderness of mediterranean nature. A little boat goes to Proizd from Vela Luka a few times a day, and the trip lasts some 30 minutes. Make sure you explore the other beaches of this island too, we guarantee you won't be dissapointed. Run away from summer crowds and unwind on this heavenly little island.

You can freshen up in a nearby restaurant above the beach, rent out deck chairs, and if you've arrived there by car, park it on a nearby parking lot.


3. City beach Banje in Korčula

If you've booked your accommodation in Korčula, and you're in search of a refreshment from summer heat, take a stroll along the promenade to Banje beach.

However, there's content ideal for families with children and all of those who love day long stays at the beach.


4. Vela Pržina beach (Lumbarda)

This sandy beach in the settlement of Lumbarda, just 15 minutes away from Korčula town is one of the most popular beaches in Croatia. Here it can also get crowdy at peak season. But if you're an early riser or a lover of night swimming, at those times of the day there are less people.
