User reviews
"The beach was pleasant and peaceful. We spent a few hours there until midday and were impressed by the stunning water. Although the beach was composed of pebbles, we found it enjoyable. Additionally, there were sunbeds and umbrellas available, but there was also ample space to spread out with our own belongings."
