User reviews
"The beach is well-maintained and pleasant. It offers a stunning view and the water is comfortably warm. I noticed people strolling with their dogs and even horseback riding along the shoreline. In general, it's a lovely spot for leisurely walks in the morning or evening, and a great opportunity to get a sun-kissed tan during a week-long vacation. 😊"

"The beach has a smooth sandy shoreline that is ideal for children. One of the highlights is the exciting activity of hunting for crabs, which can be found along the rocky path leading to the church on the left side. It's definitely a fun experience!"
