Mali Bok, Primorje-Gorski Kotar County, Croatia

4.5 (117 reviews) Spent 1-2 hours Ranking #2 in Primorje-Gorski Kotar County Beaches

Hidden crystal blue beach

The best thing of Cres Island is the hidden beaches. Mali Bok beach is one of them. Although it is quite challenging to reach the beach, but it is really worth the effort. The beach is located below the cliff near Orlec village and the car parking is above the cliff. It is free. From the village, we still head to the beach, the road was quite small. To go to the beach was easy but to go back to the car was super tiring. The walk-path was super steep and long, at least we walked for 20 minutes to the car. Make sure to wear shoes if you go there. Bring water and food. The beach itself was amazing. The water color was crystal blue. Although the water was cold when we were there (the end of August) but we still swam. There was no shade, so beware with the sunburnt. We spent on the beach in the afternoon so it was not that hot. We enjoyed our time there.

    Favorite beach in Croatia!
    My husband and I went to Croatia for our honeymoon and this was our absolute favorite beach in Croatia. We traveled to Rovinj, Premantura, Cres Island, Zadar, Split, Brac Island, Hvar Island, Korcula Island, Ston, and Dubrovnik. If you're a beach lover, please PLEASE put this in your itinerary! It is an absolute breath taker! Tip #1 - In June, we came around 4:00PM on a weekday and there were only six people there, including us. This was a perfect time to go because the sun was on the other side of the mountain which provided some shade on the beach. Also, this beach has the prettiest pebbles so snag one if you like to collect rocks! Tip #2 - Bring water and snacks. The hike down was easy but the hike up was challenging!

    Nice little beach
    You can only reach it by walk: around 500m walking from the parking place. When we visited it was very crowded. The water was nice but as there are rocks all around there is really little space for sun taking. The altitude difference is around 130m in 500m walk fro the beach back to parking place.
