10 Exceptional

In my opinion, this beach stands out as the ultimate destination with its pristine shoreline that is free from both sand and stones. There are multiple entry points to the beach, but I personally recommend the stairs - there are three sets available. It's recommended to wear sturdy shoes to avoid any mishaps, especially if you're with children. Speaking of which, it's possible to bring kids along, but it's important to exercise caution. One noteworthy feature of this beach is the non-naturist path that runs alongside all the beaches. Unfortunately, it's not stroller-friendly, so make sure to leave it behind. However, cyclists can park their bikes nearby and keep them secure.

Wow! This beach is absolutely stunning! The crystal-clear water gently laps against the soft sand, creating a peaceful and rejuvenating atmosphere. And to top it off, there is even a refreshing stream nearby. This is truly a slice of paradise on earth.

The only way to experience pure happiness on this coastline is by boat, accompanied by the soothing sound of cicadas.

Accessing this beach can be quite challenging, as it is only reachable through sea or narrow paths that lead downwards. It is advisable to wear sturdy shoes and be cautious of slipping. However, the beach's beauty is worth the effort, and during the off-season, it feels like a secluded paradise at the edge of the world.

I was quite let down by the beach as the water appeared to be murky and uninviting. The dark color of the water was quite unappealing, and it didn't live up to my expectations of a beautiful beach. I have decided that I won't be returning to this particular beach in the future.
