Visit Pula Review
Beach Njive is one of the most scenic and well-loved coves within Rt Kamenjak. This beach offers a natural mix of small pebbles and rocky shelves that slide quickly into clear, deep water – perfect for swimmers, cliff jumpers, and anyone seeking a more adventurous seaside spot.
Morning visitors will find the beach shaded by pines and pleasantly calm before the midday crowds arrive. The relaxed beach bar provides cold drinks, light snacks, and music, creating a simple yet inviting atmosphere.
Despite the offroad approach, the area is easy to reach by car or bike, and the nearby free parking area is a big plus. Families with older children will enjoy the safe, clean swimming area, while those with toddlers should note the quick depth and occasional waves.
Beach Njive is part of Kamenjak’s protected landscape, so an entry fee is charged at the park gate – a small price for the unspoiled Adriatic beauty you’ll find here.

It’s less commercial than other beaches, maintaining a peaceful, local vibe despite its growing popularity. The bar adds convenience without spoiling the natural setting, offering drinks, snacks, and shade among the trees.
