Guide
Good to know
Excellent for snorkeling and diving
The cove offers clear water, abundant fish, octopus, and underwater rocks with sea urchins once past the sandy entrance.
Pay €3-5 for parking
A farm or private property owner at the road's end charges this fee to park, with a 5-15.
Bring water shoes or sturdy footwear
The path is rocky with spiky stones, and the beach entrance has rocks and seaweed rather than soft sand.
Visit in calm weather only
Wave action brings debris, seaweed, and jellyfish; October and rough conditions make the water noticeably dirtier.
