The beach is a beautiful spot for swimming, with easy access via steps. Although it's a bit rocky, wearing swim shoes will solve that problem. The sea is both thrilling and pleasantly warm, making it the best part of my week.

This beach is a lovely spot for families, but it's important to be cautious as the shoreline is made up of pebbles and shells instead of sand. However, it's absolutely stunning to visit during sunrise or sunset, and the peaceful surroundings make it a great place for meditation.
