User reviews

"The serenity of the beach was truly remarkable, as we were able to bask in the sun in complete privacy at the secluded end. We even had the opportunity to sunbathe in the nude, with only a handful of passersby strolling by. To top it off, Georgos house was the perfect spot to unwind with a refreshing cold beer."

Andrew Tanner

"This beach is fantastic and easily accessible. It's a small beach with pebbles, but definitely worth a visit."
