Stiniva is the most famous and most beautiful Bay on Vis Island, if not the whole country. Hidden behind high cliffs, the small cup-shaped pebbled beach lies in absolute seclusion and tranquility. Only a narrow gap in the cliff opens up for a sea view. At the small beach there is a beach bar serving light refreshments and snacks. Natural shade depends on the position of the sun and the surrounding rock walls, but umbrellas should be brought for longer stays anyway. 

You can reach the bay from Rukavac and Vis by car by taking the fork in the road towards Plisko Polje (follow the signs) about 1.2 km. From the parking lot there, you can take the beautiful but steep and rocky goat path that leads down to the picturesque Bay of Stiniva. For young children and the elderly, however, this 20 minute descent is difficult, which is why we recommend accessing the beach by boat over the waterways, especially on hot days. An advisable trip, not only because it is convenient but also because of the stunning natural backdrop of the sea-side rock formations. For those who do not own a boat, it is possible to book boat trips in the tourist resorts.

The descriptions on the page are subject to constant changes. We always look forward to interesting comments, which help to keep the beach descriptions up to date.
