Rajska Plaża is a sandy beach located in a large bay. It is famous for its soft, light brown sand, crystal clear waters and plenty of greenery.

It is located in the northwestern part of Dugi Otok, the largest island of the Zadar archipelago. It is considered to be one of the most picturesque sandy beaches of Croatia and always attracts a lot of tourists who want to feel the atmosphere of the Maldives without leaving the borders of the European Union. The mainland port of Zadar has a regular ferry ride to the Dugi Otok, the journey on which is itself a fascinating boat trip along the scenic islands of the Adriatic Sea. Getting off the ferry, you will take a crowded bus to the beach, so renting a car to explore the most remote corners of the island is the most convenient option.

This most extended beach, 17 km from Zadar, stretches from the south-eastern outskirts of Nina to the village of Sabunik in the north-west. The name is associated with many beautiful women who visit the beach, although the locals themselves call it "Ninsk Lagoon". Its main "highlight" is the presence of the largest mud spring in Croatia in the vicinity, which allows you to combine swimming in the sea with mud treatment procedures.
