Plišivac Beach: A Complete Guide
Just north of the town centre, Plišivac is rightly considered the most beautiful beach in Podgora. Pines surround the bay, filling the air with the scent of pine and sea salt.
The Beach at a Glance
The bay is more than a kilometre long and narrow in places. It is covered in pleasant small gravel that turns to sand at the waterline, so walking into the sea feels like stepping onto a sandy carpet. The water quality is rated excellent.
Best Time to Visit
In July and August Plišivac is busy and lively, full of people and summer fun. For a calmer swim, come early in the day or in June and September.
Facilities & Amenities
There are showers, changing rooms and toilets, and restaurants and cafés are close by. Pines along the back of the beach give natural shade.
Exploring the Surroundings
Walk south into Podgora's centre and promenade, or north to the quieter, natural Dračevac beach.
Practical Tips for Your Visit
There is no parking at the beach itself. Car parks are listed in the quick facts. Arrive early in summer for a shady spot.
