Zgribnica (Vrbnik town beach)

Vrbnik's main public beach below Gospoja park: a natural pebble beach plus concrete sun terraces, with toilets, showers, loungers, pedalos and a restaurant-bar that grills and does cocktails, sometimes with live music. It is the local-family beach, with rocks to jump from at several heights.

Our tips

• Park below Gospoja park or at the big Vajavina car park: EUR 2 an hour from June to September (09:00–22:00), payable by SMS (2026).
• If it is busy, Kozica is a 10-minute forest walk further south.
• Jump from the rocks at the side only after checking the depth, and never when pedalos are passing.
• The flat paved areas make getting into the water easy for older guests.
• Wheelchair users have an adapted, step-free way into the sea.
• Dogs are not allowed; the nearest dog beach is Mala Javna on the coast road north of Vrbnik.

Good to know

• Concrete sections, not a wild beach.
• Paid parking in season.
• Pebbles: water shoes for kids.
• Busier than the wild coves.
