Description

Pješčana Uvala, literally “Sandy Cove”, is a small seaside village just south of Pula, named after its beach. The cove is sheltered, with a mix of soft sand and fine pebbles between a pine wood and the local marina.

Thanks to its gentle entrance into crystal-clear, shallow water, it is a favourite with children and beginner swimmers, and families often spend the whole day here, in the shade of umbrellas or the pines behind the beach.

A promenade runs along the shore with cafés, bakeries and restaurants, so everything you need is just a few steps away. Children can play on the playground or try the pedal boats, and in the evening the calm sea makes a lovely backdrop for a walk at sunset.

Above the cove, Forest Park Soline offers shady walks, and nearby Cave Romane is worth a visit too.
