ŠRC Poloj

ŠRC Poloj, or the Sport and Recreation Center Poloj, is a lively summer retreat just 3 kilometers east of Slavonski Brod, set along the scenic banks of the Sava River. Renowned for its expansive sandy beach—often considered one of the most attractive river beaches in Europe—Poloj is a favorite gathering spot for locals and visitors seeking relaxation, outdoor fun, and a taste of Slavonia’s riverside charm.

The center is well-equipped for a full day of activities. Visitors can enjoy sports fields, public barbecues, children’s playgrounds, and catering services, all set within a vibrant, family-friendly atmosphere. A 2.5-kilometer jogging and cycling trail leads directly to the beach, making it easily accessible for those who prefer an active approach. The riverbank is monitored by an organized water rescue service, ensuring a safe environment for swimming and water sports.

One of Poloj’s unique features is Splavarska street, an area lined with river rafts that add to the recreational experience and local character. During the summer months, the center comes alive with barbecues, parties, and festivals, making it a hub of social activity in Slavonski Brod.

While specific opening hours and admission fees are not widely published, ŠRC Poloj is open to all who want to enjoy the sun, sand, and river breezes. Whether you’re seeking a peaceful picnic, a game of beach volleyball, or a lively summer event, Poloj offers a welcoming escape on the Sava.
