The site is beautifully designed, with plenty of greenery and well-maintained landscaping. The sanitary facilities are a bit older but were regularly cleaned during our stay and were kept clean. The dog beach seemed clearly too small for the number of guests and consequently very crowded. Those traveling with a dog should take this into account when booking. We noticed that many E-bikes and E-scooters were sometimes riding at an excessively high speed across the site. During our stay, we witnessed an accident that we consider serious. Therefore, we would have preferred to see more visible presence of the staff and a stricter enforcement of the existing rules. There is still significant room for improvement regarding tranquility, gastronomy, and shopping opportunities.

Beautiful green campsite 🌳
Very good8

Check-in, thanks to the online check-in, was super easy and relaxed, everything went very quickly. No waiting times, despite the high season, on Saturday around 6 PM. Everything was very clean, especially the sanitary facilities were top-notch. No matter when you arrive, everything is always in perfect order! Huge applause to the cleaning staff! Our spot was nice, framed by hedges (oleander). The entire site is beautifully landscaped with greenery. Everything is very green with many pines, olive trees, oleander bushes, fig trees, ... Huge lot with wide paths. The only negative: Near our spot, there was no water and electricity connection nearby. You needed at least a 20-meter hose and power cable! (!!This should definitely be pointed out!!). You had to crawl through a small hole in the hedge to get to the nearest water and power distributor. This is surprising for a premium Superior site.

Extreme wedges are needed for the often rocky and sloped terrain! It would be best to have a hammer drill for setting up stakes!

Unfortunately, there are now too many dogs on the campsite. Many campers have not just one, but several dogs with them.

This campsite is beautiful! I have been going to Kovacine for three years, twice a year. We feel very comfortable there, the island of Cres is simply a dream. We will be going back soon.

Actually our favorite place for years, but now no longer relaxing. Already early in the morning the barking of dogs starts and continues until late in the evening. Unfortunately, the owners do not intervene. Up to 4 dogs per pitch. Although there is a private dog beach, the animals are also often sent to the other beach sections (forbidden for dogs) to swim in the sea. Already early in the morning, the first campers head out to secure the best spots (on the unfortunately very narrow beach in the nudist area) with their sunbeds. The staff is very friendly, the restrooms are very well maintained and cleaned regularly.

It was okay! However, there are definitely many better alternatives. No lighting on the paths at night! Toilets and showers quite old and outside.

It was sometimes very loud late into the night. Also, in the morning from 7 am, some people thought they were alone in the area. The beach is far too narrow. In the morning, everyone rushed out to secure spots on the beach with loungers and towels. Generally, there is a constant crowd all day long on the site. Furthermore, there are speeding cyclists, scooters, cars, and a speeding little train. It's a miracle that nothing worse happened. The dog beach is far too small and narrow. We as dog owners often shook our heads at other dog owners. Barking, roaming dogs. Waste is simply left behind. There is a dog run, but no walking round. Staff nowhere to be seen. 3 stars, because the sanitary facilities were very clean. The promenade to the next village was nice. We cannot understand the good reviews and left earlier.

More info about Camp Kovačine
Whether active holidaymakers who love hiking, cycling or diving, families with children, couples of all ages or naturists - the Mediterranean flair and unspoilt nature of Croatia will delight all guests at Camping Kovačine on the island of Cres. Interesting excursion destinations in the region as well as a wide range of sporting and entertaining leisure activities at the comfortable, green campsite ensure a varied holiday. The holiday resort, which receives excellent ratings from both the ADAC and campers on Pincamp, not only has pitches for motorhomes and caravans, but also modern mobile homes with their own sanitary facilities and bedrooms.
Versatile campsite on the beach of the beautiful Adriatic Sea
The cosy Camping Kovačine campsite is idyllically situated on the island of Cres on the Croatian Adriatic with a panoramic view of the wooded mountains. There are 963 pitches for holidaymakers under shady coniferous and deciduous trees. Of these, 943 pitches for caravans and motorhomes are divided into 60 to 120 square metre plots. The sanitary cabins and the gas cylinder service are within easy reach. In addition to the pitches, the mobile homes can also be used as overnight accommodation. The modern accommodation units with bedroom and kitchen can be booked for a minimum period at Pincamp. Arrival at the campsite can be organised flexibly.
A German and English-speaking reception is on hand to help guests. The well-kept sanitary cabins at the campsite, which are also barrier-free, have a baby changing room and a special sanitary area for children. Camping Kovačine is surrounded by a 1.5 km long beach, which consists of fine gravel sand, rocky areas and plateau beaches with concrete sunbathing areas and is accessible from the campsite. There are also dog beaches and specially designated nudist beaches. Entertaining entertainment programmes, children's activities and sports activities such as tennis, beach volleyball or fun on the multi-purpose sports field promise a variety of leisure activities. Diving courses and bike and boat hire are also available. An internet corner and free WLAN throughout the campsite are part of the service. The wellness area is also very popular. The centre of the picturesque island capital of Cres is just 1.5 km away. Camping Kovačine guarantees a relaxing holiday by the crystal-clear sea.
Steeped in history and wildly romantic: excursions in the surrounding area
Cres has 300 km of well-planned cycling and hiking trails that lead along centuries-old olive groves to the ruins of St Bartolomej's Church, the charming fishing village of Meraga or around Beli to the seven mythological stone labyrinths. Mountaineers will love the climb to the 648 metre high summit of Gorice, accompanied by the scent of thyme and sage, where, with a bit of luck, griffon vultures can be observed. A nearby patrician palace houses the Cres Archaeological Museum. A detour to the neighbouring island of Krk with its narrow streets in the picturesque old town of Krk or to the rocky plateau of Lubenice is just as rewarding. Numerous secluded bays with their blue waters, such as Sveti Ivan beach, invite you to dream away.
Book pitches and mobile homes at Pincamp
To secure the perfect pitch or a mobile home close to the beach, booking via Pincamp, the ADAC camping portal, is highly recommended. Although there are often free pitches even if you arrive spontaneously in Croatia, there is a risk of coming away empty-handed, especially in summer. By booking on Pincamp, you can be sure that you will have your desired pitch or accommodation unit at Camping Kovačine on Cres, even during busy periods.
