Sv. Jakov beach

One of the most attractive beaches in Dubrovnik, Sv. Jakov (St. James), found its place on a solitude spot in a high rising cove beneath the beautiful church and abbey of Sv. Jakov (St. James).

It is a pebble and sandy beach with a tremendous view on Dubrovnik and the Lokrum island. From Jakov beach, Dubrovnik and Lokrum seem so close, like on a platter, a unique Dubrovnik experience.

When you grow tired of swimming and enjoying the blue Adriatic sea on Sv. Jakov beach you can join a volleyball game, right there on the beach court. Those who like kayaking can rent a beach canoe.

Jet ski lovers can rent a jet ski and enjoy a ride at the sea. Others can leisure on the beach under the warm Mediterranean sun or take cover in the shade of a lovely beach bar.
