"The beach boasts a pristine white sand and sparkling clear water. It also features posidonia and rocks that house a diverse range of fish. While it requires a 30-minute walk to get there, it's worth it for those seeking a more natural and unspoiled beach experience, as it lacks the amenities found in commercialized beaches."
Marco Santoro
"This beach is pretty great. It's a bit wild and has some really nice white sand, but it can get pretty crowded during the 20 minute walk from Tamarone beach. The trek isn't too exhausting and there are some shaded areas. I wouldn't give it 5 stars though, because there are too many boats nearby and unfortunately, no one seems to be regulating them."
