Dog beach

Dog Beach in Omiš (near Brzet) is a small, rocky/pebble cove that is the only designated dog-friendly beach on this stretch of coast. It offers clear water, a free freshwater dog shower, easy free parking, and a quiet, uncrowded feel. Downsides are recurring litter (no trash cans), no toilets or bar, and steeply deepening water over sharp rocks.
- Best time:
- Morning to early afternoon for natural shade under the pines (gone after roughly 2pm); evenings are pleasant for sunsets. Any time outside peak crowds since it rarely gets busy.
- Who it's for:
- Dog owners wanting a quiet, self-sufficient swim with their pet in a rocky cove.
