Mid-September is one of my favorite times to sneak away to the coast, summer’s crowds have thinned, yet the sea is still warm enough for long swims. On this trip, I found myself at Moracna Beach in Klek, a little stretch of the Adriatic that feels tucked away from time. The approach to the beach is simple but charming, olive trees lining the way and the sound of cicadas still hanging in the air. When I arrived, the pebbled shore was quiet, with just a few locals enjoying the late afternoon sun. The water was crystal-clear, shimmering in layers of turquoise and deep blue, inviting me in after the drive.
Swimming here in September felt like a gift. The heat of July and August had passed, replaced with a gentler warmth, and the sea was calm, perfect for floating on my back and taking in the view of the green hills wrapping around the bay. What I loved most was the serenity. No loud music, no rush—just the rhythm of the waves, the salty air, and a sense that summer wasn’t quite ready to let go. Moracna Beach may not be as famous as other stops along the Dalmatian coast, but in that moment, it felt like my own private paradise.

Nice bridge!! Looks like a super place to unwind.
ReplyDeleteIt truly was. The bridge is a few years old, and connects the mainland to the Peljesac peninsula.
DeleteLovely places. So many amazing bridges over the world
ReplyDeleteAmazing Moracna Beach, bridge looks great. Stunning photos.
ReplyDeleteYou make this beach look so appealing in your photos. Glad the heat of summer has passed so it is pleasant to be outside again.
ReplyDeleteHow lovely!
ReplyDeleteI am always astounded by the pebble beaches in Europe. We have acres and acres of white sand here. Enjoy your last taste of summer. We are starting to have a few spring days here. Enjoy your week, and thankyou again for the linkup.
ReplyDeleteWhite beaches are beautiful too. The sea here is very clean and fresh.
DeleteWhat a cool looking bridge!
ReplyDeleteAmazing bridge Mersad. Thanks for hosting and commenting. I hope you have a lovely week ahead
ReplyDeleteBeautifully written! The way you describe Moracna Beach with olive trees, cicadas, and clear water really brings it to life. Reading this while working at Sallimoservice makes me want to plan a trip. Would you say September is the ideal time?
ReplyDeleteYes I would. Much better then the heat of mid-summer.
DeletePiran really is a special stop along the Adriatic. The Venetian charm, narrow alleys, and views from the old walls make it unforgettable. Your description captures that balance of relaxation and adventure perfectly. I had a similar feeling exploring coastal towns, and while reading your post, I was reminded of travel planning service like seattleblacklimo.com option which make it easier to focus on the experience rather than logistics.
