If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive.

While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone.

User reviews
"The beach is quite small, but due to its location, it is not overcrowded. We decided to add it to our tour of the island's beaches. There is no designated parking area, so you can only park on the roadside. The water is exceptionally clear, and the view is pleasant, although it may not be one of the top-rated beaches."
Aria Dumitrescu
"Exceptional dining experience, although the prices may be considered excessively high."
