User reviews
"The beach offers awe-inspiring crystal clear waters that are a sight to behold. However, it is worth noting that there are no food or drink vendors in the vicinity. The final 3 kilometers of the route leading to the beach are in poor condition, but the overall experience is absolutely worth it."
Lysander Kostas
"The beach was difficult to access by car due to the poor condition of the dirt road. Many private properties were located near the beachfront and the umbrella vendor gave us unwelcoming looks. It was also peculiar that these private properties had almost exclusive access to the beach. Additionally, the beach had light sand with pebbles."
