The beach stretches on the sunny coast and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. 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. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Grossa Beach with the locals.

"Looking for a place to avoid all human contact? Look no further than this secluded beach! It's the perfect spot to embrace your inner hermit and bask in the solitude.
