About Štrand City Beach

Opened to visitors in 1911, Štrand is Novi Sad’s favourite stretch of the Danube: 700 metres of sandy shore that becomes a small town of its own each summer. Locals prize a cabin here for long days with friends, and families come for the playgrounds and entertainment. Bring a towel and join a game of beach volleyball, or try head tennis, which city lore says was born on this very beach. Cafés and restaurants keep everyone fed, and sports and cultural events run through the season, making it one of the liveliest corners of the city on a summer evening.
