Nice beach, offering ample space to spread out your own umbrella and towel without any charge. The water is shallow and warm, and the sand is soft and inviting. Additionally, there are free showers available to rinse off the salt and sand. The parking area is large and complimentary, which is a great convenience. If you're looking for refreshments, there's a cantine that serves coffee, drinks, and snacks, or you can bring your own food to enjoy on the beach. Moreover, there's a restaurant nearby in Drepano, which is just a 3-4 minute drive away, and you'll have to take that route to exit the beach anyway. The only drawback is that the water may not be crystal clear at times, but it's still safe for swimming.

The beach was simply perfect, always reliable and consistent. There's no need to worry about any potential risks or unpleasant experiences. But of course, that was just a joke, hehe.

The beach boasts a pristine stretch of sand and is ideal for families with young children as the water is shallow.

It's a great spot to unwind, especially during the late afternoon when the atmosphere is incredibly soothing. The coffee is delightful, and the lounges are reasonably priced.
