The beach is good. Water clearness 10/10, the shore is in big sand which makes the water even more clear. The only “-“ is that the space for ppl who don’t want to pay for 2 benches and an umbrella 100+ EUR or 2x 1L cocktail for 40€ - is ridiculously small - 10x10m(it’s at the end of the bay). But the experience of such clear saeside levels this.

Extremely calm and beautiful beach with deep blue waters having the abundance of boats and yachts, lined up with beautiful white and blue hotels and homes on the shore lines up the hills. I really enjoyed the setting sun and cool breeze here. Gravelly sand on the up and smoother silkier sand near the water.
