Beach description
Mighty cliffs partially shield the beach from winds, and the soft golden sand invites you to swim and wander barefoot. The sea is clean and relatively calm, making it ideal for swimming, though the waters can be quite cold. When entering the sea, it is advisable to wear special shoes due to the stones at the bottom.
There is no need to seek shade near rock formations, as there is a risk of rock collapse. Instead, it is safer to relax on a chaise longue under an umbrella. At the rental point, you can hire a pedal boat or a fun boat. Lifeguards are on duty to ensure the safety of vacationers.
The beach features a small parking area and toilets for convenience. Tourists can enjoy lunch at the snack restaurant or opt for dining and overnight stays at the nearest aparthotel, which boasts a swimming pool and tennis court.
