Guide
Good to know
Explore the town and promenade
The seafront boulevard is well-maintained with numerous restaurants, cafes, and shops ideal for dining before or after beach time.
Visit for a quiet, uncrowded beach
The pebble terrain deters mass tourism, making it consistently peaceful even during peak season.
Bring water shoes and a lounger
The beach is covered in large rounded pebbles that make walking and lying down uncomfortable without proper gear.
Expect deep water entry immediately
The seabed drops off quickly, so you cannot wade gradually into the sea.
Check conditions after storms
Heavy weather can leave seaweed scattered across the beach and alter the pebble arrangement, making entry difficult.
