Blue Lagoon Croatia — Attraction in Grad Trogir

Water was gorgeous crystal clear blue. Our boat docked at the pier and we walked over to the beach, bar, blue mat entrance to the water. Be sure to bring water shoes if you plan on taking the mat into the water to swim. The entry to the water in front of the bar is very rocky and you must get through about 10 meters before being about thigh high to even think about going into the middle. On a Tuesday in July it was Very crowded in the water and there were only small fish and sea urchins to be seen as the crowds of people scare away anything bigger. I was really disappointed with the water /swim experience. The beach bar had tables under filtered awnings and was a nice retreat.

Review of the Blue Lagoon near Trogir

The Blue Lagoon could be a beautiful spot – crystal-clear waters nestled between small islands – but unfortunately, the reality is far from idyllic.

During my visit, I was shocked by how overcrowded the area has become. Dozens of tourist boats anchor here every day, turning the lagoon into a noisy, congested mess. Some operators seem to care very little about the environment, disturbing marine life and even anchoring in sensitive areas. This is nothing short of environmental exploitation.

Even worse – and truly alarming – are reports that the owner of a local beach bar is allegedly discharging raw sewage directly into the lagoon via a pipe. If this is true, it constitutes a serious environmental scandal. That something like this could happen in an EU country is deeply troubling.

Until authorities take action and proper protections are put in place, I cannot recommend visiting the Blue Lagoon. What was once a natural gem is now at risk of being completely destroyed by irresponsible tourism...

It wasn’t too crowded when we went in mid-June. The water is very clear, on a cloudy day it isn’t super blue but it’s still worth a visit for some nice photo opportunities!

Perhaps not the best beach or waters in the world but still worth a try, I went on an island hopping tour from Split and it was quite fun. There isn’t much else to do on this island except the blue lagoon and a beach bar. Also the ground has lots of rocks (not a sandy beach) so if you have water shoes it will definitely make the experience more...
