Pinezići is located on the western coast of Krk Island, facing the island of Cres. The village has evolved from a traditional fishing settlement into a popular destination for those seeking tranquility. The pride of the place is Jert beach, which regularly receives the Blue Flag for its high water quality. The beach is surrounded by dense pine forests providing natural shade, and the shallow, clear water is convenient for families with children. Around Pinezići, there are numerous olive groves where the famous Krk olive oil is produced. The nearby Valbiska ferry port connects Krk Island with the islands of Cres and Rab, making Pinezići a strategically favorable starting point for island hopping. In local konobas, visitors can enjoy fresh fish, homemade pasta (Šurlice), and the local Žlahtina white wine. With its relaxed atmosphere and proximity to pristine nature, Pinezići gives an authentic island experience away from the mass tourism of larger towns on Krk.
