Zlatni Rat Beach
Zlatni rat, Bol
A pebble spit jutting into the sea whose tip shifts with the wind and currents, Croatia's most iconic beach.
Zlatni Rat Beach lies about 2 km west of the town of Bol on the south coast of Brač. A spit of fine pebbles roughly 500 m long stretches into the sea, its tip swinging with the wind and currents. It is backed by pine forest, with Hvar visible across the water. The water is clear, and the afternoon Maestral northwest wind makes it a hub for windsurfing and kitesurfing. Entry is free, though umbrellas and sunbeds cost extra. From Split, take a fast boat to Bol, about an hour, with daily sailings in summer. Alternatively, take a car ferry to Supetar and then a bus across the island.
