This beach is truly exceptional. It is not overrun with crowds or the clamor of cafes, and there is a vast play area for children to frolic in. The shore stretches out for quite a distance and is accommodating to those who prefer not to swim. This idyllic spot is perfect for horse enthusiasts who want to revel in the beauty of nature, sink their toes into the sand, and bask in the soothing sound of the ocean's waves.
