Cvitačka Beach

Situated about 2km from Makarska town centre is Cvitačka beach. Cvitacka is everything you would expect from a Croatian beach; crystal clear, blue water and near white sand. Well, it isn’t exactly sand, more a mix of sharp pebbles and shingle. Not exactly perfect for walking on, but looks idyllic and is the reason the water is so clear along this coast.

The beach itself is quite idyllic with the local pine forest reaching right down to the “sand”. It’s also fairly recognisable with the man-made jetty in the middle of the beach.

Being so close to a resort town means there are plenty of facilities at Cvitačka. It also means it can get quite busy and loud in the summer months. In addition to a selection of bars and cafes there are plenty of places to rent equipment for diving, paddleboarding or even jet-skiing.

The beach is dog-friendly and for those wanting to bare all there is a Cvitačka nudist beach just around the corner.
