Jezero Beach – A Serene Cove East of Sumartin

Situated along the coastal road leading to Rašotica and Povlja, Jezero Beach is a tranquil escape just a ten-minute walk from the center of Sumartin. This beach is favored by visitors seeking to avoid the bustling waterfront while remaining close to the town's amenities.

Characterized by its smaller and more natural setting compared to the main bathing area, Jezero Beach features a blend of pebbles, rocky outcrops, and flat stone surfaces ideal for sunbathing. The water here is exceptionally clear and turquoise, making it perfect for swimming and snorkeling.

A notable advantage of Jezero Beach is the combination of shade and stunning views of the Biokovo mountain range and the Makarska Riviera. The pine trees lining the shore provide natural shade throughout the day, ensuring a comfortable experience even during the hottest summer months.

Accessing the beach is straightforward, with short steps leading down to the water and a well-maintained path along the main road. Ample parking is available along the roadside, although it is not a formal parking lot. Most visitors find parking without difficulty, especially in the morning hours.

Facilities at Jezero Beach include:

  • Public shower
  • Natural shade
  • Several flat rocks suitable for sunbathing and entering the water

Unlike more developed urban beaches, Jezero Beach lacks beach clubs and loud music, contributing to its peaceful and local atmosphere. This makes it a popular choice for:

  • Couples
  • Visitors seeking a quieter swimming experience
  • Nature enthusiasts
  • Beachgoers wanting to avoid the hustle and bustle of the town center

Some areas of the beach may have rockier entries, so water shoes can be beneficial, particularly for children. The water temperature at this beach can be slightly cooler than in other parts of Sumartin, providing a refreshing respite during the peak summer months of July and August.
