Kupalište Pedocin (La Lanterna)

🏖️ Mixed 🟡 Mixed access

A historic public bathing facility open since the early 20th century, known for the wall that still divides the male and female sections of the beach. It represents a unique part of local tradition and one of the most unusual bathing spots on the Adriatic. Located at the foot of the La Lanterna lighthouse, it features concrete sunbathing platforms and direct access to the sea. Particularly popular among locals who cherish the informal, relaxed character of the place — no sun loungers, no music, just the sea and the sun. The entrance ticket is symbolic, and the beach is open in summer.
