Pebble beach · Vir, Croatia

Lanterna beach

A pebble beach in Vir, Croatia. The bay opens toward the north-west across more than 50 km of open sea, so expect waves when the wind comes from that side. The bottom drops away quickly: about 4.3 m of water only 50 m from the shore. Further out it reaches roughly 19.4 m at 400 m. The surroundings are wooded (trees around 10 m tall), so there is natural shade to find in the afternoon. It is one of 28 beaches around Vir; the nearest is Meka uvala, 910 m away.
