The beach was really nice. We were just passing by and decided to take a quick break there. Unfortunately, our time there was too short. But overall, it was a wonderful experience. ❤️

Please be cautious of thefts and avoid leaving your car unattended, even for a short period of time. Unfortunately, our vehicle was targeted and broken into through the back window while we were dining at the Taverna upstairs.
