Mlaska beach

Mlaska is one of the few truly sandy beaches on Hvar, a sheltered cove on the north side of the island close to Sucuraj. The water is shallow and warms up quickly, which makes it a favourite with families with small children. Pine trees give natural shade and there is a camp with simple facilities right behind the beach.

Mlaska Beach, Hvar

north coast

Park along the old Hvar to Stari Grad road above the bay and walk down the steep, rocky footpath, about 10 to 15 minutes on uneven ground. The roadside parking strip is small and fills quickly, so many visitors come by taxi boat or rental boat from Hvar harbour instead.

Facilities are modest, so bring what you need for the day. The clear, sheltered water is excellent for swimming and snorkelling; arrive early in July and August to be sure of a spot.
