User reviews
"What a quaint little spot, but oh dear, the amenities leave much to be desired. The unsightly sight of cars parked practically on the sand is an embarrassment, and it seems only the most uncouth individuals take advantage of it. It's a pity really, as the scenery and ocean are truly breathtaking."
Z KJ
"This serene and well-kept beach boasts a pleasantly warm water temperature, which surpasses that of the neighboring beaches to the south of Marsala. Moreover, the culinary offerings here are quite delightful. The staff is also very friendly and accommodating."
