Поплавать не удалось Couldn't swim

Second time in Croatia. Last year in the Poreč area at the Albatros Hotel. Hotel Epidaurus is very well located and has its own beach, which is rare for Croatia. Sunbeds and umbrellas are free, but you need to borrow early in the morning, there is not enough for everyone. The hotel is right on the beach. The territory is small, but very nice, green. The pool is practically only for children, small. The rooms are standard small but clean and tidy. it is better to take a sea view, you will sleep under the roar of the surf and you will hardly need air conditioning, even in August. The food is good, for a 3 * hotel even a very diverse and very democratic attitude of the staff to the removal of dishes and fruits to the beach and to the rooms (the all-inclusive system). Animation is average. There is one significant drawback from my point of view: next to the hotel's beach, a mountain river flows into the sea and the water in Tikha Bay, where the hotel is located, is very cold. In August it was no higher than +20 and even then in the afternoon, and in the morning only for winter swimming lovers. This is the main reason why there is no desire to return here. The rest is not great, but good. Compared to the 4* Albatross in Poreč , Epidaurus is preferable if it weren't for the temperature of the water in the sea. Brr!! !
