User reviews
"The beach and water were absolutely magnificent, and the bar served up some truly fantastic cocktails. Additionally, you can rent some comfortable sun beds to relax on. To access the beach, you'll need to pass through a small gate from the main road and descend a few steps, so it's not the most car-friendly spot."
Lena Johansson
"Finding a spot to park your vehicle can be a bit of a challenge, but once you make it to this seaside paradise, you'll be rewarded with crystal-clear waters and a lovely stretch of sand. Plus, there's even a restaurant just a stone's throw away, making it the perfect spot to spend a relaxing day in the sun."
