Banje Beach
Plaža Banje
A pebble beach a short walk from the Old Town, just outside the Ploče Gate. From the water you can see the city walls and Lokrum Island, making it Dubrovnik's most classic beach.
Banje Beach is about a 5-minute walk outside the Ploče Gate, the eastern gate of the Old Town, next to the former quarantine station, Lazareti. The beach is made of fine pebbles, and the water is clear. One side has a beach club where you can rent loungers and umbrellas, while the other side is a free public area. From the sea, the view back toward the city walls and the Old Port is unique. It gets crowded in summer, so arrive early to claim a spot, and bring water shoes for snorkeling. In the evening, the beach club turns into a bar.
