Not most beaches. <b>*ALL*</b> beaches are public. There are no private beaches in Croatia. None. This is the law. If someone wants to charge you for being at a beach, tell them you'll call the police.

It‘s not expensive if you know how. Of course first row to the sea and in the Heart of the City the prices are higher (like everywhere) i‘m every year there bought a new built Apartment personal contact no Agency no Commission. It‘s all about the „how you do it“ 🙋🏻♂️<br>Enjoy the Planet while You’re here ☀️

Odlično napravljeno 👍🏻👑 samo par činjenica o šljunku na plaži: nikad nisam nosila plastične sandake zbog šljunka, eventualno zbog morskih ježeva. Mi smi naviknuti na šljunak i ja ga volim. Pješčanih plaža ima dovoljno u svakom dijelu obalne Hrvatske, osobno ih ne volim, ali evo primjera: <br><br>Sjeverni Jadran<br><br>Rajska plaža (Otok Rab, Lopar)<br>Dugačka je dva kilometra i izrazito plitka. Nudi bogat sportski sadržaj i restorane. Idealna je za obitelji i cjelodnevni boravak.<br><br>Plaža Spiaza (Otok Susak)<br>Glavna plaža na otoku koji je potpuno stvoren od pijeska. More je plitko stotinama metara. Do nje se stiže isključivo brodom.<br><br>Uvala Bok (Otok Susak)<br>Potpuno prirodna i divlja pješčana oaza. Nema nikakvih ugostiteljskih objekata ni suncobrana. Savršena je za mir i tišinu.<br><br>Plaža Bijeca (Medulin)<br>Najpoznatiji pješčani dio u cijeloj Istri. Duga je oko jedan kilometar. Okružena je stablima koja pružaju prirodan hlad.<br><br>Pješčane plaže u zadarskoj i šibenskoj regiji<br><br>Kraljičina plaža (Nin)<br>Najduža pješčana plaža u Hrvatskoj (3 kilometra). Poznata je po plićaku, toplom moru i ljekovitom crnom blatu.<br><br>Plaža Sakarun (Dugi otok)<br>Poznata kao "Hrvatski Havaji" zbog izrazito bijelog pijeska. Tirkizno more okruženo je gustom borovom šumom.<br><br>Plaža Slanica (Otok Murter)<br>Vrlo popularna plaža s tirkiznim plićakom i pogledom na Kornate. Zbog zabavnih sadržaja ljeti privlači velike gužve.<br><br>Pješčane plaže u srednjoj i južnoj Dalmaciji<br><br>Plaža Šunj (Otok Lopud)<br>Smještena u dubokoj uvali na otoku bez automobila. Do nje se pješači kroz šumu. Pijesak je vrlo mekan.<br><br>Plaža Porat (Otok Biševo)<br>Skriveni dragulj blizu Modre špilje na izoliranom otoku. Zaštićena je od vjetra i savršena za bijeg od civilizacije.<br><br>Plaža Lovrečina (Otok Brač)Nalazi se u dubokoj uvali blizu mjesta Postira. Pijesak se nalazi na obali i proteže se daleko u moru.<br><br>Plaža Prapatno (Poluotok Pelješac)Smještena u čistom zaljevu blizu povijesnog grada Stona. Okružena je starim maslinicima i ima vrlo mirno more.

Its too espansive for the service you get. There is often the feeling that the locals want to rip you off. The food is also too expansive for the quality you get.

It's been my experience that nice places cost money. I don't expect cheap prices when I go to nice places. If I'm looking for a cheap vacation, there are numerous options but I may not get the mountains, the sea or islands in one package. Nice places don't stay a secret for long. Price is driven by demand.

Unfortunately it became expensive destination but remain budget in terms of what it offers in return.

Explore a bit more, the reason why it's expensive is because all the companies are taken over by German companies and groups, that's why the prices are also jumping.

Since it became part of EU the prices went up. <br>Money used to be in Kuna and had great value now everything is in Euros. Not good.
