Uvala Dječji Raj is a partly managed beach with a concrete shore. It sits in a small coastal town, and you get there by a surfaced road. The seabed drops away gently, at under 15°. For anyone arriving by boat, there is mooring nearby, just off the beach. In season it is usually busy, and the prevailing wind blows from the north-east. There is no parking at the beach itself.
