Pesja Beach in Omišalj, Croatia, is a Blue Flag-certified sandy beach located at the end of a picturesque bay beneath the town's historic center. Framed by a pine forest, it offers natural shade and a tranquil picnic area, complemented by a lively volleyball court for active visitors. The beach’s gentle slope and clear waters make it ideal for families, while its proximity to Omišalj's old town adds cultural charm.

Reviewers consistently praise the beach's cleanliness and serene atmosphere, with many highlighting the convenience of nearby amenities. Events like summer concerts and fishermen’s festivals add vibrancy, blending relaxation with local traditions. Its sheltered location ensures calm waters, perfect for swimming and sunbathing.

Nearby dining options cater to diverse tastes, with Villa lsabella standing out for its casual atmosphere and notable cocktails (4.6★). Pipo offers a mix of barbecue and coffee-shop fare, ideal for quick bites (3.9★). For authentic Mediterranean flavors, Restoran Ruža earns praise for its seafood and service (4.4★). Temporarily closed FISH HOUSE, located directly on Pesja Beach, is a local favorite for fresh catches, while the family-friendly Adriatic Hotel’s restaurant provides sea-view dining with traditional Croatian dishes. Most feature outdoor seating and emphasize locally sourced ingredients.

Hotel Adriatic (3.7★) offers functional rooms with balconies, just a 2-minute walk from the beach, complemented by a bar and buffet breakfast. While no other directly linked hotels appear in immediate proximity, nearby camps like Camping Omišalj (1.2 mi away, 4.4★) provide sandy beaches and family amenities. For upscale stays, Magal Hotel by Aminess (3.3 mi away, 4.1★) offers beachfront access, while Aminess Gaia Green Villas (3.5 mi away, 4.7★) features eco-friendly villas with sea views.

Pesja Beach provides restrooms, showers, and picnic tables shaded by pines. Rental loungers and umbrellas are available seasonally, with proximity to snacks and bars. Camp Pušća nearby adds a playground, mini-market, and dog-friendly zones. The Blue Flag certification ensures well-maintained facilities and water quality.

Volleyball equipment can often be borrowed informally, while the beach’s gentle terrain allows easy setup for family activities. Lifeguards patrol during peak seasons, and accessible pathways are noted in nearby facilities, though direct beach accessibility details are limited.

Swimming and sunbathing dominate here, with calm waters suitable for children. Volleyball is popular at the dedicated court, while kayaking and snorkeling can be arranged through local vendors. Summer events like craft beer days and folkloric performances add cultural flair.

Nearby trails to Omišalj’s historic sites offer light hiking, and boat tours from the harbor explore Krk Island’s coastline. The pine forest provides shaded paths for cycling or jogging, appealing to active visitors.

Partial accessibility is noted through parking spaces and ramps at nearby restaurants like Konoba Ulikva and Villa lsabella. However, sandy terrain limits wheelchair mobility directly on the beach. Showers and restrooms at Camp Pušća are more accommodating, with paved pathways to amenities.

Reviewers recommend arriving early to secure spots, especially on weekends. Accessible parking spaces are noted at major venues like Hotel Adriatic but may require verification for beach proximity.

Pesja Beach has held the Blue Flag since 2004, reflecting its environmental standards. The pine forest is home to migratory birds, while the bay’s shallow waters occasionally reveal ancient pottery shards. Omišalj itself is one of Krk Island’s oldest settlements, with roots tracing to Roman times.

Local legend claims the beach’s name derives from “peščana” (sandy), though some tie it to historical salt pans. The annual Fishermen’s Night festival here transforms the shoreline into a lively open-air tavern.

Omišalj’s old town, perched on a cliff above the beach, features medieval architecture and the Church of the Assumption. The abandoned Hotel Učka, visible from Učka Beach, offers a haunting contrast to the area’s natural beauty. Nearby, Dubec Park provides scenic viewpoints overlooking Kvarner Bay.

Roman ruins at Fulfinum Mirine (4 km away) and Rijeka Airport’s aviation museum (5 km) cater to history enthusiasts. Boat excursions to neighboring islands like Cres are easily arranged.
