User reviews

"The beach, although visually appealing, is not as pristine as it appears. The water may seem clear, but upon closer inspection, one can see the litter and debris that pollute its depths. The sunset, while beautiful, is a fleeting moment that cannot make up for the overall unpleasantness of the beach."

DREAM VISION NETWORK

"This beach, known as Cala, boasts a sandy shoreline and is surrounded by intriguing caves. Adjacent to the abandoned former police lido, this picturesque location is situated in an archaeological area where significant discoveries from the Neolithic period were uncovered during the 1960s and 1970s."
