Beach character
The beach's primary surface consists of beige sand intermixed with pebbles, with the seabed exhibiting a similar composition. Depth increases gradually, making it accessible for families with young children. The landscape offers picturesque views, though visitor reviews note the presence of small stones near the water's edge that may affect comfort. The beach's moderate crowd levels during peak season suggest it balances between being a popular destination and maintaining a sense of space.Swimming and shore
The shallow, gradually deepening waters make Plaza Sabunike suitable for swimmers of all abilities, particularly those with young children. However, visitors should be aware of the small stones near the shoreline, which some report as uncomfortable for barefoot walking. The mixed sand-pebble seabed creates a textured experience for swimmers, though the overall water quality is described as transparent in certain seasons.Facilities and activities
While no formal amenities are listed in the beach's authoritative features, visitor reports mention basic facilities including showers and toilets. The beach supports water-based activities such as stand-up paddling (SUP), surfing, and general water entertainment.

Very beautiful public sandy beach, the biggest we have seen in the area, in a great landscape.

The beach is quite good, especially for a young children. There is a shallow see and rises slowly. One star is down because of small stones and gravel (very small stones which are very unconfortable) on the edge of the see approx 3-5m on the entrance. However after that, the see is very good with sand, very clean. The beach is ok, with shower, toilets and there is small bar and some pancakes, hotdog, etc.

Transparent water. During the Eastern almost empty and you could go over 100m inside the water that still great to enjoy it. Cold water with sum, perfect combination. Queen Beach combo. Zadar
