Sahara beach

It was the last day of May when we headed to the famous Rab beach Sahara. I had never been here before, so I didn’t know what to expect. It is the most famous nudist beach in Lopar, but you can swim and sunbathe even with clothes on. It is close enough, yet far enough away if you want to enjoy peace and quiet during your vacation on the island of Rab. Keep in mind that there are no additional facilities here, so be sure to bring at least some drinking water with you. From the parking lot to the bay, you need to walk for about 20 minutes, and longer if you are not in a hurry to jump into the sea – if you decide to enjoy the walk through this special landscape as much as possible. At the end of the approximately 1.5 kilometer long path, we were greeted by a beautiful bay of crystal clear sea. Apart from us, there were no passersby or swimmers here that day, which gave us the feeling of a wild beach ‘in the middle of nowhere’. Sahara is the most famous nudist beach in Lopar, and also one of the most beautiful in the area. However, as I mentioned before, although nudism is allowed, it is not exclusive, so everyone is welcome to enjoy this secluded sandy cove in their own way. It can also be reached by sea, of course. Numerous taxi boats from the San Marino Harbor run daily to the beach and back. It is sandy and covered with small vegetation, and if you need shade (as I do), it is definitely better to bring your own umbrella because natural shade is difficult to find. Since there are no facilities on the beach, bring everything you need for a full-day relaxation, including, above all, refreshments. Since there are not many people here, the area around is exceptionally well-preserved – it is not degraded and there is no garbage. All we found was one small buoy that was probably brought by the sea. Sahara is an extraordinary natural secluded beach with fine and soft sand and definitely one of those that is worth visiting at least once in your life. Due to the shallow sea that warms up quickly, the swimming season here starts early.

Wild sandy beach, with shallow crystalline waters for 100 meters. Gave it 5 stars because we love these kind of beaches, but I guess it’s not for all. 1. There is 1.5 km to walk. First 1.3 is a wide path, last 200m are VERY steep. 2. Mixed FKK 3. LOTS of boats. We don’t particularly mind these things, and the photos are self explanatory. Amazing.

The beach is very beautiful. The only problem is you can hardly get to it. It is at least 15min walk from parking place and you have to walk on weird terain. The beach is very low and very long. And there is no shadows at all. If you go there I recomend you go in the morning or few hours before it starts getting dark.

Mia liked it very much, but there is no longer a nudist beach is a pity, I was coming specifically for this I liked it a lot, but it's no longer a nudist beach is a pity, I was coming specifically for it.

Great beach for people who loves a lot of clean sand and clear sea. It is quite shallow, so kids will love it, but its not so easy to get there from the land. You need to prepare yourself for some hiking from place where you will leave your car, but the path and the views is gorgeous, its worth it. Definitely bring umbrella, because there is no natural shade.

Worth the hike and the experience of a beach well off the beaten path. There are options around the island to charter a boat to the beach if you prefer not to make the hike. One of the few truly sandy beaches on the island. It is very large and private. The water takes a while to get deep and is very warm and relaxing in the shallows. There is no natural shade on the beach so be sure to bring a sun shade or umbrella. . It is a bit of a hike back to the parking area so bring lots of water and some food if you plan on spending the day here. I have been here a few times and its always worth it the trip.

A bit to walk there on foot. Rather stony beach. Walk there through idyllic woods, other alternative beaches branch off. No immediate shade available on the beach. A starting point with a SUP board to even more isolated coves.

Nice sandy beach. Great stop on a boat trip too.
