Ada Ciganlija, Belgrade's most renowned summer resort, has transformed from an island to a peninsula, becoming the city's largest and most picturesque recreational spot. The Savsko lake is encircled by over 7 km of Blue Flag-awarded beaches, offering myriad ways to enjoy hot summer days. In summer, Ada Ciganlija turns into a bustling hub, attracting over 100,000 visitors daily (up to 300,000 on weekends) for swimming, sports, or leisurely afternoons in beachside cafés. In contrast, autumn and winter bring a quieter atmosphere, with a scenic promenade lined by cafés and nightclubs, although the lake's ice is too thin for skating. With more than 50 open-air sports facilities, including a golf course and cable-ski circuit, as well as courts and pitches for various sports and extreme activities like bungee-jumping and paintball, there's no shortage of action. The area's restaurants offer traditional city fare, particularly fish specialities, while bars and floating river clubs provide vibrant nightlife.

One of the largest and most famous ocean baths is located at the shore of Newcastle. It is open all year round, which motivates some to use it especially in winter months. Don’t miss this unique swimming experience and don’t shy away from a visit even on colder days.

Akaka Falls State Park is nestled along the northeastern Hamakua Coast. The two mellifluous waterfalls are seen on only one short hike. A pleasant half a mile trek will take you through a lush rainforest of wild orchids, bamboo groves and coquettish ferns. You'll pinch yourself to find this is all indeed real, especially with the 100-foot Kahuna Falls and the towering Akaka Falls, which plummets down 442 feet.
