This beach is truly remarkable, with its rocky terrain and crystal-clear waters. Although the road leading to it may be a bit windy and narrow, the journey is well worth it. While the prices for drinks may be a bit steep, the beach boasts a number of reasonably-priced restaurants. Additionally, the lodgings available here are truly breathtaking and resemble a tropical paradise. A visit to this beach is an absolute must for anyone exploring the island.

The beach was pleasant and peaceful. We spent a few hours there until midday and were impressed by the stunning water. Although the beach was composed of pebbles, we found it enjoyable. Additionally, there were sunbeds and umbrellas available, but there was also ample space to spread out with our own belongings.
