When you reach the Church of Saint Jakov, which is situated at the top of a cliff, take the steps behind the church which will take you straight to the beach.
Tito’s Villa Beach – This beach is a sand-stone surface beach named after Josip Broz Tito. The beach is located just next to his villa, and was once off-limits to the public.
