The beach is absolutely delightful with numerous taverns that offer complimentary sun-chairs and umbrellas. Alternatively, you can find a cozy spot under a tree to bask in the cool shade. Although the vegetation on the sand can be a tad bothersome, the water is pristine and shallow with a crystal-clear hue. Occasionally, some algae may drift to the shore, but the beach is regularly cleaned every fortnight. For a fantastic tavern experience, Gorgona or Butterfly are highly recommended.

The beach is simple but nice, with wet water and sandy shores. There are also pine trees with needles scattered around. Overall, it's an okay spot.
