Beaches South of Neretva Delta

Komarna Beach

janskov

Komarna : There is a pebble beach just south of the village 300 m from the centre and it is safe for small children. You may also swim directly from the rock beach that runs all the way along the coast. Small children must be supervised at the rock beach.

If you have a lot to carry you may drive a car to the beach. It is possible to park there – unless you come late on Sundays where the place can be rather crowded. The road to the beach continues and if you turn left in the T-junction you will come to the main costal road close to Duboka (do not turn right, it is a dead end).

If you want to try a different beach than Komarna, the obvious choice is Klek.

Klek: Has a beach with fine pebbles and it is quite safe for children. During the high season there is a fee for using the parking area (50 Kuna). Along the beach there are small bars and restaurants and the place is very crowded during the weekends.

Neum: Has a couple of pebble beaches with many bars and restaurants close by and at the beach. There is a parking fee during the season.

Since it is the only piece of coast that belongs to Hercegovina, it is very crowded by people from several big hotels.

There are other small hidden pebble beaches that are a bit more difficult to find – except if you have a boat. When you go from Komarna towards Opuzen turn left on a small road towards Raba and Duba. After about one km turn left towards Kremena (direction Duba is a bad road that should be avoided). 400 m after you turned left, you must turn left again and continue on the gravel road down to an unnamed little beach where the locals have build al sorts of strange cabins.

The road is passable for any car, but it isn’t possible for two cars to pass each other, so look well ahead to see if somebody is coming against you.

Instead of turning left you can also continue and go to

Kremena where there is an artificial gravel beach. 300m further on to the right, along the beach, is Duba Beach where you can get a close look at one of the many caves that were build by the former Yugoslavian Navy as shelter for their naval ships. There is also a coffee shop in Duba.

There are beaches around Blace. Have a look under “Blace” for driving directions, or take the fast road through the delta. Go to Opuzen. After you have gone past River Mala Neretva look out for a road sign saying “Blace”. This is a flat direct road through the delta

Instead of driving into Blace (pebble beaches) you may go straight ahead before the pumping station and go 500 m to

Camp Rio camping, restaurant and shopping. The beach here on your left is the closest you will get to a sand beach around here. It is coarse brown gravel that some like better than the rock - and some don’t. Have a look and decide for yourself.   There are also similar beaches further out by the mouth of Neretva.
