User reviews
"This beach is undoubtedly one of the most stunning we've ever had the pleasure of visiting. The parking fee is a reasonable 6€, and there's even a hiking trail for those who are feeling a little more adventurous. It's important to note that cash is the only accepted form of payment, and parking rates may fluctuate."
Sarai Garcia
"The cost of parking at the beach is €20, but fear not, there is a bar conveniently located near the shore where refreshing water can be purchased for just €1 per 0.5 liter and Messina beer for €2.5. If you're feeling adventurous, take a leisurely 10-minute stroll to the right of the beach and you'll discover a picturesque spot perfect for cliff diving!"
