Beach character
The beach forms a narrow cove measuring 210 meters in length and 30 meters in width, with a seabed composed of standard-grain sand. The predominant surface is white pebbles, creating a distinctive texture underfoot. Depth increases smoothly from the shore, a feature noted by visitors as particularly suitable for families with young children. The beach is officially designated as pet-friendly, with information signs directing users to designated areas for dogs.
Swimming and shore
Swimming conditions are generally favorable, with slow, gentle waves that create a calm environment. The depth gradient allows for safe wading, and snorkeling is explicitly listed as an available activity. The white pebbles, while not ideal for sunbathing, provide a stable surface for setting up beach equipment. Visitors have reported clear, warm water with minimal turbulence, though the absence of sand means traditional sunbed setups are not feasible.
Facilities and activities

The beach is explicitly marked as suitable for wild camping, with no dedicated infrastructure. Snorkeling is the primary structured activity, with the clear waters attracting those seeking underwater exploration. The beach's pet-friendliness is a notable feature, though users are directed to follow signage for designated animal areas.
Access and location

Very few people, great swim.
Forget about any negative comments about this beach, we’ll worth checking it out. Clean clear and warm water. Nice gentle breeze to keep you cool in the heat. No sand but a nice white pebbled beach, can still stick an umbrella up. Great beach for the kids. Slow gentle waves. Definitely one of the top beach spots on losinj. Can drive right up the beach with the right vehicle or park just 300 meters from the beach on side of the dirt road. Primorje-Gorski Kotar
