Croatian term or phrase: kupalište
Zanima me kako reći kupalište uz rijeku, tj. plaža uz rijeku. Bathing area mi se čini neprimjreno (možda se varam). To se odnosi na kupalište koje je i registrirano kao kipalište i ima popratne sadržaje.

An unusual feature of the region is the creation during the summer months of numerous river (fluvial) beaches by the local authorities.

These normally consist of a raised rock platform in the middle of a river, often below a weir, to form a temporary island linked by two wooden footbridges.

Soft sand is then brought in to cover the new feature and an artificial 'beach' may be added on the shore for good measure. Showers, BBQs, café-bars, local artworks and even canoes supplement the ones nearer villages. Away from habitation, the simpler beaches are virtually deserted during the week.

bathing area


Explanation:
Simple, "bathing area" encompasses areas which are not strictly speaking "beaches" (sand, pebbles etc) but also raised platforms, concrete etc which are also used for swimming/bathing.
