Vela Luka - Hidden Bay
A natural escape by the sea
Vela Luka is one of the most beautiful and untouched bays near Baška and a true highlight for anyone looking for nature and peace.
You can reach the bay either by hiking or by taxi boat. The hike takes around 2 to 2.5 hours per way and leads along the coast through a rocky, barren landscape. It is quite demanding and requires good endurance, especially in summer, but rewards you with stunning sea views. Alternatively, a taxi boat will take you there in just 10 to 15 minutes, offering a relaxed and scenic ride along the coastline.
The bay stretches about 1.8 km and ends in a large beach with clear water, perfect for swimming and relaxing. There is also a small bar or restaurant, as well as sunbeds and umbrellas available.
The area also has historical significance, with remains of a Roman settlement and Byzantine ruins found nearby.
