TOP 30 BEST SOLTA BEACHES & HIDDEN COVES: THE ULTIMATE GUIDE 2026
Solta remains one of the last Croatian islands where you can still find a beach all to yourself.
Whether you are looking for a family-friendly spot in a charming village or a secret turquoise cove accessible only by sea, the island's nearly 80-kilometer coastline offers unparalleled diversity.
I have handpicked over 30 remarkable swimming spots and divided the coast into four distinct regions to help you find your perfect holiday beach with ease
MASLINICA & WEST COAST: SUNSET BAYS AND PINE-FRINGED SHORES
In this section of the guide, you will unlock:
-
Locations of 10 Handpicked Swimming Spots - from the island's only sandy beach to completely secluded swimming areas, each with a detailed description.

Precise Directions and Parking Tips - save time searching for access points and save your tires from being cut on sharp rocks.

This is the most diverse part of the coastline in terms of swimming infrastructure.
The west of the island offers everything from gentle sandy and pebble entries to the water, to completely wild, rocky shelves hidden in a dense pine forest.
Most of the bays here are naturally sheltered from the open sea by an archipelago of 7 uninhabited islets, which guarantees calm and crystal-clear water for most of the day
SOUTH COAST: THE WILD BEAUTY OF UNTOUCHED CLIFFS
The southern coast is home to the true pearls of Šolta – it is here that nature reveals its most raw and breathtaking face. These are "Robinson-style" bays where you will very often be the only person on the beach, though reaching many of them requires significant effort and determination.
Each of these bays is different and hides its own secret: in one, you will find a dangerous underwater cave with a history like something out of a horror movie; in another, perfect sea cliffs for cliff jumping; while others will welcome you with absolute silence, interrupted only by the sound of crickets.
Due to the steep slopes and gravel roads, it is wise to have up-to-date directions to reach them safely.
