Camping Baldarin is a sizeable camping site providing pitches for tents, mobile homes and caravans as well as established glamping units and a range of facilities.  It is also a naturist site.  Baldarin was awarded Croatia’s Best Campsite 2018-2020.  It is actively involved in sustainability management and has been certified for its Environmental Management System under ISO 14001. The campsite has been monitoring its resource consumption and carbon footprint since 2005, in common with over 200 other sites across Europe which are recognised by Ecocamping, whose aim is to promote sustainable development, environmental protection, safety and quality in the camping sector.

Baldarin shows commitment to marine conservation through comprehensive wastewater treatment, recycling and the composting of solids.  It provides education on the extinction of species and organises litter collection events with guests at the ocean. Site design and management is aimed at preserving biodiversity. The site includes a herb garden, wildflower meadow and nesting boxes for birds. Old species of trees are preserved and reforestation uses native and insect-friendly species.
