Banje Beach

Removed from Unnamed collection

Perched perfectly with stunning views of Dubrovnik's Old Town and the enchanting Lokrum Island, Banje Beach is a must-visit spot right in front of the eastern entrance to Dubrovnik Old Town, near Ploče Gate. Nestled along the shoreline, it sits conveniently close to the luxurious hotels Excelsior and Argentina. This beach offers more than just a place to sunbathe with its own reception area, a chic restaurant, and a minimalist café right by the water. The clientele can sometimes be a bit on the posh side, but don't let that deter you. Whether you're looking to rent a deck chair and parasol or seeking a thrilling ride on a jet ski or speedboat, Banje has got you covered. The offerings change with each summer, so there's always something new to try.

A word of advice: Banje is a popular spot among tourists, so expect it to be bustling during the summer months. But that's part of the charm, right? Meeting fellow travelers while soaking up the sun and taking in the breathtaking views is all part of the experience. For those seeking a bit of culture, the nearby Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage site, offering a rich history and stunning architecture to explore. Whether you're here for relaxation or adventure, Banje Beach serves as a perfect starting point.
