We stopped at Brela on our drive down from Split to Dubrovnik – I have read about Brela beach in various travel articles and here on TA, and I was very much looking forward to what seems to be regarded as one of the most beautiful beach spots in the world. We managed to find a relatively quiet stretch of... More

Walked along the coast from Brela to Baska Voda. What a lovely walk. each turn in the promenade reveals another intimate little cove with turquoise waters lapping. Wonderful!

The beauty of the nature at the brela beach is incredible. But I would suggest visiting it in june or september, so you can take it all in. Definitely too crowded in the peak months

Come earlier, we arrived at about 2pm - and we could hardly find a parking space. the beach is very nice, with beautiful pines

The sea is crystal clear, but after visiting many Mediterranian resorts (in Greece, Italy, Turkey, Spain, Tunis) I was extremely disappoined with beaches in Croatia (Split and Makarska in particular) - narrow stretches of pebble / stone and what is even more disappointing - more people there than space (as a result, people use every horizontal surface to sunbathe -...

The beaches in Brela are nice, but not as spectacular as nearby Hvar (and I suspect other islands in Dalmatia). We were kind of disappointed by all the fuzz around this beach. In August it was also overcrowded and noisy. The water was undoubtedly clean, no complaints about that. We stayed in the camping, which was a but out of... More

One of the things I noticed about the beaches around Split was how clean the water is. Brela was no different. Although not the really big areas you might think of as a beach, the areas here are quite nice. The water was refreshing and cleaner that I have ever seen anywhere. It is nice to know that the water... More

Brela beaches are amazing. Nice clear water, many things to do and friendly people all around. We stayed outside the Brela, almost in Split. But we found brela most attractive place during our Croatia visit. Just one advice for people visiting Brela by car: Be careful, Brela is crowded and its not easy to park car near sea. And even...
