The local gay scene is turning more self-confident and is getting bigger and bigger, the population is also making progress &#8211; although there is still a social taboo regarding homosexuality. Therefore, when visiting this beautiful country, the following applies: The local gays are not necessarily used to yet if someone approaches them too openly. You should take it slowly.<\/p>\n<p>We have listed below some Croatian beaches that are known for being gay-friendly. On some of them there is also a lot of cruising taking place.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>1. Duilovo Beach<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This beach is near the beautiful city of Split. It is not a nudist beach, but there is a nearby cruising area in the surrounding woods, so you can often find gay men on the beach. You can reach the beach from Split by bus number 15 or by car. Duilovo Beach is rather rocky and lined by beautiful pine trees.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>2. Kasjun Beach<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-15304 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/spartacus.gayguide.travel\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/960px-Kasuni_beach_Split-615x461.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"461\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spartacus.gayguide.travel\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/960px-Kasuni_beach_Split-615x461.jpg 615w, https:\/\/spartacus.gayguide.travel\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/960px-Kasuni_beach_Split-215x161.jpg 215w, https:\/\/spartacus.gayguide.travel\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/960px-Kasuni_beach_Split-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/spartacus.gayguide.travel\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/960px-Kasuni_beach_Split.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 615px) 100vw, 615px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Also the visit of Kasjun Beach is a must for every Split vacationer due to its proximity to the Croatian city. The rocky beach is located on a large peninsula that prodtrudes into the Adriatic Sea to the west of the city center.<br \/>\nEspecially many gays can be found in the area just before the Institute of Oceanography. A bus (number 12) from Split also travels there.<br \/>\nThe further west you go, less and less the bathers wear. You will not only find gays here, but also a mixed crowd, which is gay-friendly.<br \/>\nThe beach is clean, quiet and secluded. You will also find many locals here.

It is considered the most famous swingers&#8217; beach in Croatia.<br \/>\nA few hundred metres away from the resort Amarin there is a winding gravel road lined with high shrubs. Follow the path for a few kilometres until you reach the shore. Here you can park your car and walk on to the beach. Please do not bring children with you!<br \/>\nSome people sunbathe naked on the rocks, couples cuddle in the sand and a few Peeping Toms hide in the bushes. The gay zone is located at the top of the cape. The gay cruising action takes place mainly in the grove behind.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Croatia has become an insider tip for gay travellers in recent years.
