Beach cave tunnels at the Srebrna Beach

The Srebrna Beach is a popular, rocky beach in the limestone layer of on the south side of the Vis island in Croatia. Beach caves are a very frequent occurrence on Croatia's coast, but for me - coming from a cave-poor country - they are always a wonder. There's a very nice straight, tunnel-like beach cave on the left side of the Srebrna beach.

And a smaller side cave as well. You can reach these caves mostly on foot, but you have to wade in in some places in the cliff-faced shore when you make your way, and in the actual cave as well.

The main cave is at N 43.019399 E 16.204786. The small side cave is at N 43.019815 E 16.205279. The beach is at N 43.020619 E 16.205317. There's parking a couple of hundred meters from the beach, and at the beach there's a bar and some toilets. You may also rent beach beds for 10€ per day.

The main cave is approximately 11 meters long, but beautifully formed. I also recorded a 3D model of the cave, shown below. Load the model from this link in GLB format. Or rotate it on your browser's screen with this link. There's also a map, picture below but the high-res version is here.
