Guide
Good to know
Expect a quiet, working beach
Fishermen gather here regularly and the atmosphere is peaceful with no beach bars or nightlife.
Shallow water near shore
The water stays shallow close to land, making it suitable for visitors with young children.
Choose a windless day
Wind and waves can make the pebbly cove unpleasant, so check conditions before you go.
Bring water shoes and supplies
The beach is rocky with minimal amenities, so wear footwear and pack everything you need for the day.
Check cleanliness before visiting
Litter accumulates inconsistently, with reviewers reporting both improved conditions and disappointing amounts of cans and plastic.
