User reviews
"The beach is truly stunning, with a recent arrival of fishermen and a plethora of seagulls dotting the landscape. The white sand stretches on for miles, inviting you to take a leisurely stroll. The town itself is a sight to behold, with its vibrant colors and pristine cleanliness. This is definitely a destination that you shouldn't miss out on."
Natalie Neri
"The beach offers a vast expanse of sand, perfect for lounging even during peak season. While the gusts of wind may pick up, it only adds to the refreshing sensation of the sun's warmth. However, swimming may be a challenge as the water is often marked with red flags. Nevertheless, the beach offers one of the most breathtaking sunsets one could ever witness."
