The sandy beach is a haven for kids. It offers both umbrellas and sunbeds, as well as ample room for you to set up your own.

The beach is really lovely, with a long stretch of sandy shore. The water is shallow, making it perfect for families with children. There are plenty of bars and tavernas scattered throughout the area.

This beach is perfect for families. The water is shallow, making it safe for children. The tavernas serve delicious food. However, it's important to be cautious about the prices, as they can vary significantly just a short distance away.

It's just average, nothing particularly special. In terms of visitors, when I went in early July, there were mainly Romanians, Bulgarians, and a few Turks. Most of them were families with their children. As for the beach, the coastline is mostly covered with rounded stones until about 2-3 meters into the water, after which there is a sandy bottom. The water remains very shallow, even 20 meters from the shore, reaching only knee height. The water is clear and nice. The village is only active during the summer, as all the facilities are closed down for the winter. There are about 3-4 small supermarkets that are quite expensive, along with 24-hour doctor services and a few kids' playgrounds with various games. Additionally, there are 2-3 coffee and cocktail bars, as well as plenty of taverns and 2 pizzerias.

The beach had soft sand, warm and clean water, and offered splendid scenery! Since we went in early June, there weren't many people, creating a peaceful and laid-back atmosphere.
