Sakarun beach is one of the most beautiful beaches in Croatia. It is located in the northwestern part of the island of Dugi otok facing south, near Veli rat. Other places in its vicinity are Soline, Verunic and Bozava. This beach, about 800 meters long, is highly suitable for children because it is sandy with shallow waters and a large space for swimming. There is a layer of sand where the beach meets the sea water, while pebbles cover the rest of the beach. The sand is completely white which makes the bay look like a large swimming pool, especially in the morning when there is no wind. Behind the beach there is a pine forest with natural shade. Nearby you can find two restaurants.From Bozava, you can take a small tourist train to Sakarun every two hours. Boaters can moor their boats using existing buoys in the bay.
