The three distinct shorelines in Pinezici can be distinguished by their surfaces, dimensions, and types of access. The history of the Church of St. Fuska, documented in the Vatican archives in 1338, adds another dimension. This lets you include swimming spots, routes, and culture in your travel plans based on specific features.

Choose a shoreline by its surface and dimensions

Jert, St. Fuska, and Uvala Sv. Juraj each offer a different type of shoreline. Jert combines pebbles, concrete, and smaller stones and measures 75 × 12 meters. St. Fuska beach measures 160 × 6 meters and is covered in pebbles. Uvala Sv. Juraj measures 220 × 5 meters; rocks and small stones characterize its shoreline. These features let you compare the three stretches of coast specifically, rather than treating them as interchangeable beach options.

Access and swimming spots

The listed access options also differ. You can reach Jert by car on a paved road, as well as by bicycle or on foot. An unpaved road leads to St. Fuska beach; it is also accessible by bicycle, on foot, or by boat. You can reach Uvala Sv. Juraj by bicycle, on foot, or by boat. As road conditions can change, check them before driving there.

Uvala Sv. Juraj and Rabasaj are considered suitable for children and non-swimmers. This assessment may depend on the conditions at the time. It is an additional point of reference alongside the information about shoreline conditions and access.

The history of the Church of St. Fuska

The Church of St. Fuska below Pinezici is documented in the Vatican archives in 1338. The single-nave building has a rectangular apse, a porch, and a bell gable. During restoration, fragments of Roman walls, bricks, roof tiles, and amphorae were uncovered beneath it. The historical perspective therefore stretches from its mention in medieval archives to the Roman finds.

The church served as a meeting place for worshippers from the surrounding area until the parish seat was moved to Linardići. In 1909, a new church with the same dedication was consecrated in Linardići. This local history adds a distinct cultural context to the coastal landscape.

Routes through villages, forests, and coves

The B-425 route, “U sjeni velikih hrastova,” leads from Milohnići through Brzac, Poljica, Žgaljići, Pinezici, and Linardići before returning to Milohnići. Pinezici is part of an explicitly named sequence of several places. The route therefore offers a different perspective from that of individual stretches of coastline.

The H125 hiking trail passes through the forests of Picik and above the coves of Valbiska and St. Fusca. The historic Church of St. Fuska near Pinezici is close to the H125. The two routes have different focuses: the sequence of places is specified for the B-425, while the H125 description includes forests, coves, and the cultural connection to the church.
