Beach character
The beach is a narrow cove measuring 30 meters by 10 meters, with a concrete surface dominating most of the shoreline. The sea floor consists of small pebbles, and the depth increases smoothly from the shore, creating a gentle gradient ideal for children and non-swimmers. Natural shade is available from surrounding landforms, though the beach lacks structured amenities such as showers or restrooms. Its compact size and concrete surface contribute to a distinct, unembellished coastal profile.Swimming and shore
The smooth depth increase from the shore makes Razanj Beach accessible for swimmers, with water depths becoming deeper gradually. The seabed's small pebbles may require caution, as one visitor noted the presence of sea urchins near the shore. While the beach is not explicitly marked as a family-friendly spot, its gentle gradient could accommodate families with young children. The concrete surface and pebbles create a tactile contrast to more sandy beaches in the region.Facilities and activities
No structured facilities such as showers, restrooms, or changing rooms are listed in the beach's authoritative features. However, one visitor mentioned a beach bar nearby, suggesting informal amenities. The primary activity associated with the beach is cliff diving, though specific access points or safety measures for this activity are not detailed.

Nice beach but very stone with lots of sea urchins (don't stand on them or touch them as they will sting you with it's spines if it does happen make sure to take out the spines asap you can buy cream from local drug stores or apoteka) if you go further up the beach you have some ladders which you are able to climb down into the sea with little to know rocks near by.
