The beach offers a fine-grained shoreline, with clear and shallow waters that are perfect for a refreshing dip. The beach bar is a great place to relax and enjoy a cold drink while taking in the stunning views. The beach is also well-equipped with everything you need for a day in the sun.

The beach is thoughtfully sheltered from the harsh North wind, providing a tranquil oasis for visitors to bask in the sun and take a refreshing dip in the crystal-clear waters. The sandy shoreline is an inviting sight, punctuated by occasional rocks that add a dash of character to the seascape. As you venture into the water, you'll notice the sand gradually giving way to a rocky bottom, creating an intriguing natural contrast that's sure to captivate your senses.
