Which area of Novalja is best to stay in for beaches?
For beach lovers, the best area to stay in Novalja is Gajac, which is just south of Novalja Town and directly next to Zrće Beach.

Gajac is a purpose-built tourist settlement. It's laid out with apartments and holiday homes, making it easy to access the coastline. The main draw is its immediate proximity to Zrće Beach, which is famous for its beach clubs and daytime energy. During the day, you'll find plenty of spots to relax by the sea, and in the evenings, it becomes a hub for entertainment.

Younger groups or friends travelling together will find Gajac particularly appealing. You're right on the doorstep of Zrće Beach, meaning a very short walk to all the beach clubs and activities. There are also several smaller, quieter beaches nearby if you fancy a change of scenery.

For those looking for a slightly more relaxed beach experience but still with good access, Novalja Town itself offers a nice balance. While not directly on Zrće Beach, it has its own town beach and a promenade with cafes and restaurants.
What is the best time of year to stay in a beach hotel in Novalja?
The most popular time to stay in a beach hotel in Novalja is during July and August, which are the peak months for enjoying the Adriatic coast. During these months, the weather is beautifully warm, with average temperatures consistently in the high 20s to low 30s, superb for days spent by the sea or exploring the island.

This period sees all beach clubs, restaurants, and water sports operations in full swing, offering a lively option and a wide array of activities. It's an excellent time for couples and groups of friends looking to experience Novalja's renowned beach scene and vibrant nightlife. Booking beachfront accommodations well in advance is highly recommended to secure your preferred spot.

For a slightly more tranquil experience with equally stunning weather, June is a fantastic alternative. Temperatures average in the mid-20s, providing ideal conditions for swimming, sunbathing, and exploring the island's natural beauty without the height of the summer crowds.
What beach activities should we do in Novalja?
The best beach activities in Novalja centre around its beautiful coastline, offering a mix of relaxation and water sports.

For those seeking a tranquil experience, swimming and sunbathing are excellent choices. Many of Novalja's beaches, like Lokunje Beach near the town centre, offer calm, clear waters superb for a refreshing dip. These beaches often have facilities like sun lounger rentals, making it easy to spend a relaxing day by the sea. Couples often appreciate the peaceful setting for a quiet day together.

If you're looking for more active pursuits, consider exploring the coastline with a stand-up paddleboard or kayak. These can often be rented directly from beaches such as Zrće Beach or Straško Beach. The calm bays around Novalja are ideal for paddling, allowing you to discover hidden coves and enjoy the stunning coastal scenery at your own pace.
Can I cancel my beach hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right beach hotel in Novalja for you.

Is it cheaper to book a Novalja beach hotel and flights as a package?
Booking a beach hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking a beach vacation package well in advance.
