The spot is a great find, tucked away among the hills. It's on the smaller side, but still a lovely spot to relax and soak up some sun. Plus, it's worth noting that the sand here has a unique gray color.

Experience the tranquility of the Greek island's beach, perfect for snorkeling and unwinding. The beach is secluded, making it less crowded, and equipped with essential amenities such as toilets and showers. Although the road leading to the beach may be unpaved, it is still accessible with any vehicle due to its smooth surface. A short walk is required to reach the beach, but it is manageable even for those who can climb two flights of stairs. Spend a peaceful day in this idyllic setting.
