Medane Beach (Punat): beach-club flair under olive trees
Medane Beach is in the southern part of Punat Bay, directly next to Punta Debij beach. While other stretches of beach often focus purely on action, at Medane Beach enjoyment comes first.
With its elegant beach bar, immaculately kept lawns for sunbathing and glorious shady olive trees, this beach exudes a modern, upmarket holiday feel.

More facilities & safety
- Accessibility: Very good. The beach is easy to reach by car, on foot or even with the popular “tourist train” from Punat centre.
- Facilities: Top infrastructure! There are extremely well-kept, modern toilets, changing cabins and outdoor showers. A massage service is also offered right on the beach.
- Dogs: Unfortunately, dogs are not allowed on the main beach at Medane Beach. However, the official Medane dog beach (službena plaža Medane za pse) is in the directly adjacent southern part of the bay.
- Water quality & safety: The bay is extremely sheltered – there are no dangerous currents or waves. The water is crystal clear and the beach proudly flies the “Blue Flag”. Perfect for snorkelling!
- Child-friendliness: 9 out of 10 points. The entry into the water is shallow. If you’re looking for action, you’ll find a large water park right next door at Punta Debij.
Our insider tip: sunset lounge
Medane Beach is the absolute hotspot for the evening. Be sure to stay until sunset! In the evening the bar turns into a dreamy lounge with gentle music (often with live DJs or a saxophone player). There’s hardly a more beautiful place on Krk to round off a beach day with an excellent cocktail right by the sea.
