A lovely small town surrounded by a wealth of amazing beaches. The best beaches are in the area from the small town of Stanici to the town of Baska Voda. If you prefer less crowded beaches, then consider experimenting around Mimice, Marusici, and Pisak. The locals choose the beaches that can't be seen from the road.
