One afternoon in October while bowhunting in the woods back home, big lazy flakes of snow started falling. The woods were so quiet and tranquil. It is a memory of home that I am very fond of. There’s no snow here on the sailboat. Just some light rain every now and then…almost daily. Winter here is quite different from what I am used to back in Alberta.

Discovering Vrgada Beach: A Hidden Gem in Croatia Croatia's coastline is famed for its pristine beaches, azure waters, and charming islands, each offering its unique slice of paradise. Among these, Vrgada Beach stands out as a hidden gem, tucked away on the small, tranquil island of Vrgada. If you're seeking a serene escape far from the bustling tourist hubs, Vrgada Beach is the perfect destination. A Glimpse of Vrgada Island Located in the Zadar archipelago, Vrgada is a small, car-free island, easily accessible by a short ferry ride from the mainland town of Pakoštane. The island itself is a blend of lush pine forests, olive groves, and traditional stone houses, offering a glimpse into the untouched, rustic beauty of the Adriatic. The absence of cars adds to the island's peaceful atmosphere, making it an ideal spot for relaxation. The Allure of Vrgada Beach Vrgada Beach is the island's crown jewel, boasting golden sands that are a rarity in Croatia, where pebbly beaches are more common. The beach gently slopes into the shallow, crystal-clear waters of the Adriatic, making it an ideal spot for families with children, as well as those who simply want to wade in the warm sea. Surrounded by the island's signature pine trees, the beach provides natural shade, perfect for those hot summer days. The peaceful ambiance is enhanced by the sound of cicadas and the gentle lapping of waves, creating a truly idyllic setting. Activities and Amenities While Vrgada Beach is known for its tranquility, there are still plenty of activities to keep you engaged. The calm waters are perfect for swimming, snorkeling, and paddleboarding. If you're up for a little exploration, you can take a leisurely hike around the island, discovering secluded coves and stunning viewpoints along the way. The beach is also home to a few quaint beach bars and cafes where you can enjoy local Croatian delicacies, fresh seafood, and refreshing drinks. Don’t forget to try the island's own olive oil, a staple in the local cuisine. Why Vrgada Beach? Unlike the more famous beaches in Croatia, Vrgada Beach remains relatively undiscovered, which means you'll often find yourself sharing the shore with only a handful of other visitors. This solitude, combined with the island’s natural beauty and the warm hospitality of the locals, makes Vrgada Beach a true sanctuary for those looking to disconnect and recharge. Tips for Visiting Getting There: Take a ferry from Pakoštane. Ferries run regularly, but it's a good idea to check the schedule in advance. Accommodation: There are a few small guesthouses and vacation rentals on the island, but booking ahead is recommended, especially during the summer months. What to Bring: While there are some amenities on the beach, it's wise to bring your own snacks, water, and sun protection. Final Thoughts Vrgada Beach is a reminder that sometimes, the most beautiful places are those that remain off the beaten path. Whether you're looking to soak up the sun, swim in clear waters, or simply unwind in nature, Vrgada Beach offers a perfect slice of Adriatic paradise. For those yearning for a peaceful retreat that offers a genuine connection with nature, this hidden gem in Croatia is definitely worth the visit.
