Osejava Park. Croatia.
Makarska Bay is formed on one side by the peninsula of St. Peter and on the other by the rocky Osejava Park. You can climb up to it by a stone staircase near the grotto, which houses a nightclub located behind the hotel of the same name. The park offers stunning views of the bay and the city. Here you can watch sunsets in the evenings or watch the departing ships in the mornings. There are several paths in the park in the direction of Makarska-Tucepi, one of which leads along the very edge of the coast and leads to the nudist beach Nugal.
The beach is surrounded on all sides by high cliffs, and in its center there is a small forest with benches and glades for resting. There is a lot of space, the entrance to the water is gentle, the pebbles are large, the water is clean and clear. Although there are FKK markings everywhere, the crowd here is mixed and the textile wearing people are treated with patience. If you go here (and it's one of the best beaches on the Macarska Revere and worth a visit), be aware that the entrance is only on one side, and to get around it, you'll have to go back through the forest to avoid the cliff. Yes, also there are not enough toilets, although there is an improvised garbage can. But the beach is very clean - naturists love nature.
You can follow the paths of the park to Tučepi, or turn to the sea again and find a couple of small rocky beaches with very clear water and small pebbles - Solarić and Kraljev Gaj. But even here you are likely to come across nudists. However, this does not embarrass anyone and different people swim here too.
The park itself is a pine forest with a lot of rocks, between which there are walking paths. There are quite a few athletes running and cycling along them. There are benches along all the paths for resting. However, be careful on the one that runs along the shore - it is not flat everywhere, in some places there are difficult sections and a lot of sharp stones. But it is the most...

Read moreAbsolutely beautiful park that connects the town and port, right by the promenade and stretching toward the southern side under Makarska.
There are a few paths to choose from, but I’d definitely recommend the one closest to the water — amazing cliff and sea views. The terrain is super varied too, with rocky spots, little hills, and different levels — one path runs much lower than the other, which makes the whole walk more interesting.
Along the way you’ll find a few benches, plenty of shade, and the whole walk takes about 30 minutes to get to Nugal beach.
The views? Unreal. The colors? Stunning. Just a...
