This particular beach is quite lovely, however, it is advised to avoid visiting on the weekends as it tends to get crowded and chaotic. Sunbeds are scarce and can only be secured if you arrive early in the morning. Otherwise, it is recommended to bring your own equipment such as umbrellas to ensure a comfortable stay.

The shoreline boasts crystal-clear, shallow waters that are perfect for a refreshing dip. Plus, there's no need to worry about umbrella fees as they are complimentary. However, the availability of sunbeds and amenities are limited which can pose a challenge. Despite this, the beach remains a delightful destination, though it can get quite busy at times. It's worth noting that there's a slight possibility of encountering jellyfish in deeper waters, but it's not a common occurrence.

This quaint beach town boasts a lovely expanse of sandy beach that is perfect for families. The sand gradually slopes into the water, making it a safe and enjoyable swimming experience for children. Early birds can take advantage of the complimentary umbrellas provided for a comfortable day at the beach. The beach bar offers refreshing drinks and lively music to enhance the atmosphere. Additionally, the fish taverna offers decent cuisine and a stunning view of the bay. Overall, this beach town is a great destination for a relaxing day by the sea.

The beach might seem pleasant at first glance, but don't be fooled by its cleanliness and tranquility. It's a dull and uneventful place, lacking any excitement or thrill. The absence of wind and waves might be ideal for children, but it also means that there's nothing to do or see. Located near Crecotel, Arcoudi, and Glyfa village, it's a remote and isolated spot, far from any civilization. The small cantine and fish tavern might be the only source of sustenance, but their limited offerings are hardly worth the visit. All in all, this so-called paradise is nothing but a disappointment.
