The beach is suitable for families with children, as there are not many rocks on the shore. It's a pleasant option if you prefer a less crowded atmosphere. The village itself has a variety of establishments, including fast food restaurants and shops. It's not overly touristy, but it provides enough amenities for a satisfying and relaxing experience. 🌴🏄🏊
