The beach is not perfect, a lot of stones, but that also makes it interesting. They have a pool on the beach and an area for small children to play in the sea. Parking is free, if you can find a spot in a street.

Amazing beach with 50m tidal salt water pool that is life guarded in the summer months. Great diving platform around high tide and awesome rock pools to explore.
