Šunj, Natural beach in Dubrovnik-Neretva County, Croatia
Šunj is a natural beach that stretches about 320 meters along the coast, featuring soft sand and clear water backed by low vegetation and rocky outcrops. There are no commercial facilities or umbrellas, leaving the shoreline in its basic state.
This coastal area has remained largely unaltered for many years while surrounding beaches were developed for tourism. The shoreline kept its traditional appearance and was not reshaped by large construction projects.
The beach holds quiet importance for local people who use it for everyday leisure and social time. Visitors can observe how neighbors gather here and spend afternoons together.
Bring water, snacks, and sun protection since the beach has no shops or shaded areas. A parking area is nearby, but you need to walk the final stretch down to the water.
The beach is open around the clock with no gates or closing times, allowing evening swims and night stargazing. After dark, the site becomes especially peaceful and the water surface catches moonlight in a striking way.
