Paralia Gerontas
8 Michele Caliari

Al primo mattino è deserta e permette serenamente il nudismo/naturismo. Se chi arriva successivamente sa cogliere l'opportunità e non indossa il bikini, la spiaggia diventa una meravigliosa occasione naturista. Comunque, pur essendo piccola, vi sono degli anfratti dove è garantita la privacy.
