The city beach is quite pleasant with its sandy shoreline. The sea is clean, although occasionally the waves can be a bit strong. It costs 10.50E to rent a shade and two sunbeds. The beach is conveniently located within walking distance of a supermarket and a few restaurants.

It's a lovely spot. You get to experience the pleasant sensation of soft sand and the inviting warmth of the sea.

6 Pleasant

The beach had lovely little loungers available for 10 euros, perfect for two people. However, the sea was quite rough, which made the experience less enjoyable. It was mentioned that the wind was particularly strong for this time of year. Despite this, we decided to spend a week at Stalis Beach, hoping that the conditions would improve.

The beach is bustling with activity, but it's not overwhelmingly loud. There are plenty of comfortable sunbeds available, and the friendly staff will bring you drinks right to your spot.

Stephen Meadows

8 Very good

The beach may be small, but it is quite delightful with its genuine sandy shoreline and absence of pebbles. For a fee of €7 per day, you can enjoy the convenience of comfortable sun beds. Although there isn't an official lifeguard, the staff from the nearby restaurant are extremely vigilant in ensuring everyone's safety.
