Istrian Cape Kamenjak Listed Among Croatia's Best Secret Beaches

March the 25th, 2022 - The gorgeous Istrian Cape Kamenjak beach (Rt Kamenjak) has been listed among the world's best secret beaches by the BeachAtlas portal, which is based in the British capital.

As Poslovni Dnevnik writes, the BeachAtlas portal based in London has included the beautiful Istrian Cape Kamenjak on its list of the best beaches in the Republic of Croatia, as well as on its list of the best secret or hidden beaches in Croatia, local portal Glas Istre (The Voice of Istria) reports. It's worth noting that this particular nature park in the very south of the Istrian peninsula is a favourite place for not only bathers and swimmers during the warm summer months, but it is also used as a picturesque promenade in winter.

''Only ten kilometres south of the city of Pula in Croatia, Rt Kamenjak is located on the Kamenjak peninsula, about twenty minutes drive from Premantura. Rt Kamenjak is known for its rich vegetative life, more than 550 different plants bloom on this peninsula, most of which are orchids, so this area is known for its natural beauty. The perfect confirmation is the fact that Lonely Planet has included Rt Kamenjak on the list of the best locations for a hidden vacation in the Mediterranean. The beach on Rt Kamenjak is mostly rocky, composed of flat rocks suitable for sunbathing and jumping. However, Rt Kamenjak is also known for its wild nature, safari bar and safari swing, which are ideal places for instagram photos. It is also useful to know that access to Rt Kamenjak by motor vehicles is charged, while the entrance for pedestrians and cyclists is free,'' BeachAtlas writes in its alluring description of this popular and truly stunning location.

It's worth adding that the two aforementioned lists also include the very well-known Croatian beaches such as Zlatni rat (Golden horn) Sakarun, Zrce, Sahara, and a few more.
