Pod Črnice (boat-only beach under the cliffs)

Tested by us We have been here ourselves.

Fine-pebble beach below high cliffs between Kozica and Potovošće, about 2.5 km south-east of Vrbnik. The road to Potovošće runs above it, but there is no way down on foot; you see it properly only from the water. A boat-only cove a few minutes from Vrbnik harbour.

Our tips

  • Go by boat from Vrbnik harbour, with a skipper or a licensed hire, and combine it with Potovošće and the Sveti Juraj coves.
  • Pick a calm day: this coast faces the channel and catches the bura.
  • Private boat tours from Vrbnik harbour make this their first swim stop, for about 30 minutes, on a three-hour loop with the Sveti Juraj, Sršćica and Biser coves; boats take five or six people.

Good to know

  • No facilities, no shade.
  • Rockfall risk under the high cliffs: sit away from the cliff foot.
  • Boat only.
