Widely regarded as Croatia's best beach, Zlatni Rat (or 'Golden Horn') is in fact a V-shaped spit of saffron-cream shingle, striking against an ultramarine Adriatc Sea. The 'V' is filled in with a swathe of woodland that stretches back inland and along the coast on either side, and besides the natural beauty you'll also find a restaurant and several cafes and kiosks, as well as ample watersports facilites, from pedal boats to jet-skis. It's also a great area for wind surfing but this activity is restricted to the very end of the spit, to keep the rest safe for swimmers.
