This little gem is a delightful spot to soak up some sun and sand. Although petite in size, the beach exudes a charm that is hard to resist. And the best part? You won't have to worry about finding a place to park as it's a breeze.

Our neighbors at the accommodation suggested visiting this delightful beach and we were not disappointed. Despite its small size, the beach boasts several coves of sand that can be reached by swimming through the crystal-clear water. The stunning blue hue of the water is simply breathtaking and adds to the overall charm of the beach. It was definitely worth the short journey to experience such a picturesque and serene location.

This charming beach offers a plethora of opportunities to discover the hidden treasures nestled within the rocky terrain. However, it may be considered petite in size.
