The beach is secluded and there are hardly any waves in the bay. Additionally, there is hardly any wind and not many visitors. It's worth noting that the beach has gray pebbles.

The beach is stunning with its gray pebbles and the water is so clear. It was quite isolated when we visited, which made for a peaceful and relaxing experience.

The water is crystal clear and there aren't many tourists around, making it a fantastic spot for snorkeling. It's definitely one of the top places we've been to in Crete.
