Novalja has a reputation of being a very safe city, however, party lifestyle has its consequences. First of all, drug presence on the beach ZrÄe is extremely high, so the police often patrols around there. Because of the beachâs high reputation and fame in Croatia, many young people who cannot afford to stay in Novalja come for a weekend and sleep in the car, drink in the car and then go to party. Picking a fight is possible with them, so donât respond to provocations. Conservative Croatian public often refers to Novalja as the Sodom and Gomorrah of Croatia. Public sex is a common thing, so don't be surprised. Condom vending machines are located around the beach, so feel free to use them. But in general Novalja is safe place and top tourist destination with respectfull and most hospitable inhabitans which will make you return to this location again and again.
