The beach closest to the port was a pleasant surprise. Despite its narrowness and popularity, the water remained crystal clear. Although there was some litter, it was a small price to pay for a budget-friendly option when other beaches were not available. Families with young children and backpackers alike would find this beach to be a great fit. The beach bar-canteen was a highlight, with an impressive selection of drinks, coffee, cocktails, and snacks at unbeatable prices. Overall, this beach seemed like an ideal getaway for those without transportation. I'm already considering a return trip!

This beach is the epitome of relaxation. The gentle ebb and flow of the water will lull you into a state of pure bliss. And if you're worried about getting too much sun, fear not! For a mere 7 euro, you can rent an umbrella and bask in the shade. And when hunger strikes, satisfy your cravings with some refreshing granita and snacks. Plus, the changing rooms make it easy to freshen up before heading back to reality. It's like a little slice of paradise, right in your backyard.

The beach adjacent to the port is simply wonderful, making it an ideal spot for a day trip. There's a pleasant cafe on site that offers a variety of reasonably priced beverages, including beer, wine, and spirits. I was particularly impressed with the dakos, which were the most delicious I've ever tasted.

The beach is decent, but the only amenities available are lounge chairs for 7 euros per two people and a small beach bar. If you're searching for a hidden gem, it's best to look elsewhere. However, there are toilets and a changing room on site.

My family and I had a great time at the beach. It's free to access the beach, but if you want to rent beds and an umbrella for the whole day, it costs €7. Ordering food and snacks on the beach was very convenient. However, there was no shower cabin available to wash off the sea salt after swimming.
