Green Beach Karpinjan – natural shade, turquoise sea and active relaxation
Just a short walk from the town centre of Novigrad, this pebble beach is known for its pine trees that provide natural shade throughout the day. The shallow sea entry makes it safe for children, while its spacious layout allows everyone to find their own peaceful spot. Here, time slows down – whether you’re reading a book, enjoying a quiet conversation or simply watching the sea.
Karpinjan is one of the largest and greenest beaches in Novigrad. Set in a wide, almost perfectly rounded bay, surrounded by pine forest and open grassy areas, it offers a rare sense of openness so close to the town. The sea is calm with a gentle, shallow entry, ideal for carefree swimming. The pebble shore gradually transitions into rocky sections, while a long seaside promenade in the shade of pine trees is perfect for a morning coffee, an easy bike ride or a relaxing break in nature. Sunbathing areas, loungers and sports facilities further highlight the beach’s active character. In the evening, Karpinjan takes on a special calm – the sea becomes almost glass-like, and the setting sun bathes the treetops in golden light.
Perfect for: families with children, recreational visitors, SUP enthusiasts and anyone who enjoys a blend of nature, space and a gentle summer rhythm.
