It is more important that you have a good time offering you all kind of sports activities , swimming, live concerts, few cocktails, in company with good looking people, in few words a place to eat, drink and dance. I won’t start with Dubrovnik or Split beaches but with one, probably the only beach in Croatia with Ibiza sense. Zrce party beach
