This location is aptly named for the shells the sea has left behind, making it a great spot for sunbathers to take in the beautiful sunset from the beach bar or the rocks behind Mount Boi and Monterreal.

Dogs had a great time frolicking on the beach, running and playing in the sand and surf. They seemed to be having a blast!

The beach has a small sandy shoreline, made up of broken seashells that give it its name. It's a great spot for kids and families, with a clear and wild sea that's perfect for a quick dip. The views are stunning, with a fortress in the background, and there's even a shower facility. In the past, you could find an old spa on the left side of the beach, where the locals used to go for a bath.
