Hidden Beaches of Rt Kamenjak
Hidden Beaches of Rt Kamenjak await at the southern tip of Istria, where this wild, windswept peninsula near Premantura offers raw natural beauty. While it’s becoming better known, its hidden beaches and coves still feel like a secret waiting to be discovered.
Unlike the wide sandy stretches you might find elsewhere, Kamenjak’s coastline is rugged and untamed, dotted with rocky outcrops, pebble bays, and crystal-clear water. Getting to some of these spots requires a bit of walking – sometimes along narrow paths through pine forests or across open rocky ground – but that makes the discovery even sweeter.
A beach for every mood
Whether you’re looking for cliff-diving thrills at Kolumbarica Bay or a quiet pebble cove where you can sunbathe in peace, Kamenjak offers something for everyone.
Some of the best hidden spots include:
-
Njive Bay – a peaceful pebble beach surrounded by greenery.
-
Debeljak Cove – calm waters perfect for swimming and families.
-
Mala Kolumbarica – dramatic cliffs and deep blue water for the adventurous.
Even in the height of summer, it’s possible to find a quiet spot if you’re willing to explore a little off the beaten path.

Pure nature
There are no big resorts or beach bars here – just the sound of the sea, the scent of pine trees, and the open horizon. Pack water, snacks, and good walking shoes, and take the time to wander and discover.
In a region known for its charming towns and lively beaches, Rt Kamenjak remains one of Istria’s last true natural escapes.
