View of Lubenice Bay

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great view of the bay of Lubenice, if you feel like it, you can hike down and up again from here.
But it is a proper task

Petra Cave

Highlight • Cave

Much larger than it appears from the outside.
Narrow access, but everything is doable. It's inhabited by a family of bats.
If you walk quietly through the cave, they won't startle you.

Rocky Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

Anyone who is reasonably sure-footed can climb the rock. The short view is rewarded with a great 360 degree view.

Blue Cave (Blaue Grotte)

Highlight • Cave

Can be reached by SUP from Camping Slatina in 1.5 hours. Take a double paddle with you. 😉 Pay attention to the wind strength and direction, it's better to go close to the shore.

Unfortunately, the recording didn't stop and there was still a little car ride on it

The tour is not easy, plan on sturdy shoes and at least 1.5 liters of water per person. The grotto is beautiful but take a flashlight with you. The bay itself is beautiful, think of bathing shoes. The blue of the grotto only comes into its own around 6 p.m. (end of July beginning of August)

Lubenice on the island of Cres is a small, very old village with a wonderful view of the blue sea. There are two hiking options here, both of which can be done in one day. My personal recommendation is the cave hike. You don't necessarily have to go to Playa, as there is logically a beach next to the caves, …

A great tour to a dream beach 🌊☀, Caribbean feeling as a treat on top of the blue grotto. Very exhausting on 2 km 350 meters of altitude with partly loose gravel but this beach and these views compensate for all the effort 😍🥰😍🥰😍🥰
