The small “Mokra mačka” beach is just a stone’s throw away from the marina and the old town center. Unlike the more spacious beach in Žusterna, this one is easily accessible on foot from the nearest parking lot.

What the Beach Is Like

  • Surface: Concrete platform; the entry into the water is pebbly. It is bordered by a pier on both sides.
  • Entry into the water: Gentle slope; the depth increases gradually.
  • Shade: Natural shade from pine trees is available near the grassy area. The main concrete and pebble sections, however, are in the sun all day.
  • Accessibility: A ramp is available for people with mobility impairments to enter the water.
  • Swimming area: Marked by buoys and bounded by two piers.

Infrastructure and Amenities

  • Public restrooms, showers, and changing rooms.
  • Two piers; a children’s playground with a sandbox is nearby.
  • A beach bar is open on the beach itself.
  • Admission: Free.

Is it suitable for…

  • Children: Yes—gentle entry into the water, a fenced-off swimming area, a sandbox, and a playground in the immediate vicinity.
  • Dogs: No, there is no designated area for dogs here. The closest option for dog owners is Pasja Beach.
  • A peaceful getaway: The beach is small and located in the city center, so it gets quite lively and crowded during peak season.

How to Get There and Where to Park Nearby

  • On Foot: It’s just a 5-minute walk along the waterfront from the bus stop by the market.
  • Parking: The closest parking garage available to tourists is the Belveder Parking Garage; from there, continue on foot along the marina. You can view descriptions of all parking facilities in Koper here.
