Guide
Good to know
Excellent for beginner snorkeling
Shallow water near shore with rock formations allows easy access to abundant sea life without deep swimming.
Visit in off-season for quiet
The cove becomes peaceful and nearly empty in January and April, offering the scenic views without crowds.
Arrive before 10am in summer
The small beach fills quickly during peak season, with parking becoming nearly impossible by late morning.
Wear water shoes or sturdy footwear
The beach is entirely pebbles and large stones, not sand, making bare feet uncomfortable and potentially painful.
Check road access before 2pm
Vehicle access to the beach is restricted or closed during afternoon hours, typically from 2-6pm or until 4pm.
