The peninsula where the Hotel Pinija is located is a real little paradise for all lovers of nature, sun, and sea. This peninsula offers beautiful beaches perfect for families with children and those looking for water sports adventures. Here is an overview of these beaches’ most important facilities and beauties.

Pinija Beach: Paradise for families with children

Pinija Beach, located next to our hotel of the same name, is especially popular among families with children. This rocky and pebble beach provides the perfect environment for playing and relaxing. Children can carefreely enjoy playing on the shore thanks to the gentle entrance to the sea and pebbled shores, which allow for safe movement and fun.

Parents can enjoy various water sports such as kayaking and SUP boards (stand-up paddling). Those who prefer relaxation can lie on comfortable deckchairs, with the sound of the waves and the smell of the pine forest that provides natural shade. The beach has umbrellas and sunbeds available for rent, adding to the comfort.

Sports and entertainment facilities

The hotel’s proximity provides additional facilities that make the stay even more pleasant and fun. Sports fields for golf, tennis, table tennis, bocce, and beach volleyball are available. Children will enjoy the children’s parks near the sea, which are ideal for playing after a day at the beach.

Those seeking a more peaceful vacation can relax at one of the three beach bars located on each side of the peninsula. The bars offer a variety of gastronomic offers: refreshing cold drinks, coffee, and homemade ice cream, and for those who are hungry, there are freshly prepared sandwiches, hot dogs, and pancakes. For a complete gastronomic experience, a la carte restaurants Kantun and Lanterna are located next to the beach and offer excellent meals in a beautiful setting.

Natural beauty and relaxation

The beaches on this peninsula abound in the natural shade of the pine forest, which allows visitors to hide from the sun during hot summer days. Tall pines are the home of crickets, with their tireless chirping, swimming, and resting by the pine forest has a special charm.

All these beaches and facilities together create an ideal place for a family vacation, but also for those looking for a bit of adventure and an active vacation. The peninsula with the Hotel Pinija offers a variety of options for all tastes, making it the perfect destination for a summer getaway and vacation.

We’re thrilled to introduce new gastronomic offerings for this season at our a la carte restaurants, Kantun and Lanterna. Each restaurant presents a unique dining experience, perfect for any occasion, from casual beachside snacks to elegant dinners under the stars.

Restaurant Kantun: Casual Dining by the Beach

Nestled beside the hotel’s beach, Restaurant Kantun is your go-to spot for an informal lunch, a quick snack, or an early dinner. Imagine dining with the soothing sounds of the waves and a breathtaking view of the sea and the Zadar archipelago. The shade of the surrounding pine forest provides a cool and refreshing retreat after a day of seaside adventures.

Restaurant Lanterna: Elegant Dining with a View

For a more formal dining experience, head to Restaurant Lanterna. Perched on a terrace with a stunning view of Petrčane and the mesmerizing sunset, Lanterna offers the perfect setting for a romantic dinner or a special celebration.

Both Kantun and Lanterna offer more than just a meal—they provide an unforgettable dining experience with their picturesque settings and exceptional cuisine. Our restaurants at Hotel Pinija promise to delight your taste buds and create lasting memories, whether you’re having a relaxed meal by the beach or a sophisticated dinner with a view.
