Buža Beach, Rocky beach beneath city walls in Dubrovnik, Croatia
The beach features concrete terraces built into limestone cliffs, providing multiple levels for sunbathing while overlooking the clear waters of the Adriatic Sea.
Located at the base of Dubrovnik's medieval fortifications, the beach earned its name from the Croatian word 'buža', meaning hole, due to its entrance through the walls.
Local residents gather at this hidden swimming spot, continuing a tradition that dates back generations before modern tourism discovered this Mediterranean refuge.
Visitors should bring water shoes for the rocky surface, sun protection due to limited shade, and cash for the beach bar that operates during summer months.
The beach requires passage through a small doorway cut into the ancient city walls, leading to stone steps that descend toward the water.
