Jert (Pinezići): The island’s bluest wonder
Jert beach is in the west of the island of Krk in the small village of Pinezići. It’s a true gem for aesthetes, as the water here glows an almost unreal turquoise blue.
The bay is surrounded by dense pine forest, which gives the place a very natural and wonderfully relaxed atmosphere. Here you can expect the perfect mix of wild nature and excellent service.
Beach type
A fine, pleasant pebble beach, complemented at the sides by well-kept concrete sections for sunbathing.
Shade
Very good! The dense pine forest right behind the beach offers numerous cool, natural shady spots for hot summer days.
Food & drink
Very charming. There are two excellent beach bars (“Jert” and “Mocca”) offering not only cold drinks but also good snacks, tasty ice cream and coffee.
Parking
There’s a large forest car park just before the beach. There’s usually a daily flat rate of approx. €5 to €8 (depending on the season).
Facilities & details
- Accessibility: Good! An asphalt road leads down from the main road to the beach area.
- Water quality & safety: Outstanding. The beach proudly holds the “Blue Flag” and the water is considered one of the cleanest in the Adriatic. There are no dangerous currents, as the bay is very well sheltered.
- Child-friendliness: 9/10 points! The pebbles are pleasant, the entry slopes gently and in summer there’s often a large water trampoline for the little ones.
- Sanitary facilities & sunbeds: Everything’s there. There are clean toilets, changing rooms and showers right on the beach path. Organised sunbed hire is also available (a set with 2 sunbeds + parasol costs approx. €20 to €25 per day).
- Snorkelling: Excellent. Thanks to the extreme underwater visibility and the rocky sides of the bay, Jert is one of the best snorkelling spots in the region.
- Dogs: Unfortunately, dogs are not allowed on the main Jert beach.
Our insider tip for Jert
Come to the beach in the late afternoon! When the sun slowly sinks lower, the light refracts in the water so uniquely that the bay looks almost like a huge glowing swimming pool. Water taxis also often stop at the small quay and can take you on a short, unforgettable trip to the island of Cres opposite.
