Zlatni Rat, White pebble beach in Bol, Croatia
The V-shaped Zlatni Rat beach extends 500 meters into the Adriatic Sea, featuring white pebbles and clear water perfect for swimming and sunbathing.
First mentioned in maritime maps from the 16th century, this natural formation emerged from wind-deposited sediments over thousands of years of geological processes.
The beach represents a central gathering point for local festivities during summer, where traditional Dalmatian music performances and food festivals take place.
Visitors can reach the beach via a 20-minute walk along a tree-lined promenade from Bol town center, with regular boat services available from Split.
The tip of the beach changes direction based on wind patterns and sea currents, rotating up to 45 degrees depending on weather conditions.
