Guide
Good to know
Excellent snorkeling from the shore
Fish, crabs, sea urchins and corals are visible immediately from the beach in crystal clear water.
Wear water shoes on entry
The beach is entirely pebbles and large round stones, making barefoot wading uncomfortable and difficult.
Arrive before 10am, especially weekends
The small cove and limited parking fill up quickly, with people arriving mid-morning even on weekdays.
Bring cash for the beach bar
The on-site bar does not accept card payments and charges around eight euros per drink.
