The beach has limited parking, but more spots can be found towards the port. While space on the beach is also limited, the snorkeling experience is definitely worth it. Although the water near the shore may be murky, you don't have to swim far to see a variety of fish. The water is shallow near the shore and extends to about 6 meters past the buoys.

The beach was lovely and not too crowded. Unfortunately, it was closed due to the weather, but I would definitely consider returning in the future.

The beach may be small, but it's lovely with a mix of sand and stones. There's a convenient shower available to rinse off the saltwater. If you're hungry or thirsty, there's a nearby restaurant where you can grab a cold or hot drink and a warm meal.
