"The beach is truly delightful with its crystal-clear waters, pristine sand, and a serene ambiance that is not overcrowded. The refreshing experience of small fish nibbling at your toes, akin to a fish spa, adds to the charm of this beach. Overall, it's an idyllic destination that offers a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of city life."

"The beach located near Sissi is undoubtedly the finest one. The sand is of a golden hue, which adds to the beach's charm. However, if you're not staying here, you'll need to be fortunate to find a hotel sunbed."
