User reviews
"This beach is absolutely stunning, offering a breathtaking view. The staff here is incredibly friendly, making it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a refreshing drink or a cup of coffee. As for the food, while the sandwiches were delicious, I wouldn't recommend trying the salad."
Darian Isakov
"There's a lovely beachside terrace that offers a small variety of food and a wide selection of drinks. The staff is incredibly friendly, although the food is just okay. Personally, I found the salads to be more enjoyable than the sandwiches. However, I must say that the pistachio ice-cream was absolutely delicious!"
