💡 Tips
- Take the scenic coastal walking path over the hill from neighboring Petrovac.
- Bring water shoes, as the long beach is predominantly made of pebbles and rocks.
- Carry enough cash, as ATMs are scarce and card payments aren't always accepted at small beach bars.
- Head to the far southern end of the beach for a much quieter, less developed experience.
🍽 Food

Try the daily catch at the simple, traditional konobas (taverns) lining the beach.

🛍 Shopping · 🧘 Quiet spots

Water temperature…
Buljarica features a 2.2-kilometer pebble beach stretching just south of the town of Petrovac. The coastal strip is bordered by extensive campsites and old olive groves, accommodating visitors looking for a natural environment. The protected wetland area behind the beach serves as a significant habitat for numerous migratory bird species. The medieval Gradište Monastery, known for its preserved frescoes, is situated on a hill overlooking the village. The settlement is easily accessible from the Adriatic Highway and provides a quieter coastal environment from May to September.
