Beach description
Here, visitors can enjoy lazy swimming, sunbathing, reading, and boat tours. Shallow and calm turquoise waters are the guarantee of safe recreation. In order to enjoy snorkeling, you'll have to take a 3-minute travel to Scilly Cay island which is famous for its coral reef. Guests have their meals in an open restaurant with delicious seafood and cocktails served on a shadowy terrace.
On the village territory, the natural park Big Spring is situated, famous with a half-destroyed cave where the petroglyphs of ancient American Indians were preserved. The two-day festival Del mar is also very interesting. It is celebrated by local fishermen in march or in April and is remembered with funny competitions, live music and home dishes.
