The beach is quite petite, with people sitting on chairs practically at the water's edge, but it's a lovely spot nestled between rocky formations. Additionally, the sand on the beach has a brown hue.

4 Frustrating

The beach is quite small and overly crowded with umbrellas. Additionally, it's worth noting that the sand has a brown hue.

2 Very poor

The reference to the Solymar Skafidia tag in the review is misleading. The photos clearly depict the Skafidia beach, which is a designated area rather than a point of interest.

This beach is impeccably arranged and boasts shallow waters, making it the perfect spot for families with young children. While not particularly large, it is a sought-after destination and can fill up quickly.
