Plaža Brzet
Plaža Brzet is a peaceful white-pebble beach about a 15-minute walk from Omiš, known for exceptionally clear turquoise water and natural shade from pine trees. It is noticeably quieter and more relaxed than the busier main Omiš and Ravnice beaches, with beach bars, changing cabins and showers on hand. The setting offers scenic views of the town and mountains, though the lack of public toilets is a common gripe.
