User reviews
"This location is quite nice, but the locals seem to have an unfriendly attitude towards tourists, which is a shame."
Cameron Beutin
"If you're accustomed to Mediterranean beaches, this beach offers a unique experience. On sunny days, it's quite popular, but the sunsets are simply stunning. Unfortunately, there are no camping sites close by, but the beach does have basic amenities."
