User reviews
"My family and I had a great time at the beach. It's free to access the beach, but if you want to rent beds and an umbrella for the whole day, it costs €7. Ordering food and snacks on the beach was very convenient. However, there was no shower cabin available to wash off the sea salt after swimming."
Nathan Joren
"The beach adjacent to the port is simply wonderful, making it an ideal spot for a day trip. There's a pleasant cafe on site that offers a variety of reasonably priced beverages, including beer, wine, and spirits. I was particularly impressed with the dakos, which were the most delicious I've ever tasted."
