The car park is fairly easy to access, although it may take a little longer. You'll be parking at a bee hotel, which is quite unique. 😉 After that, it's time to put on some sturdy shoes. The first few meters are easy and along a well-worn path, but it gets rockier and steeper further down. Flip flops are not recommended, but it's still doable with a bit of a challenge. Some people opt to take the route over the neighboring bay and briefly through the water to reach the beach. Once you arrive, you'll find a peaceful and well-maintained pebble beach. There are a few shaded areas, but they are quite scarce, so bringing a parasol is recommended. The water is crystal clear, and clothing-optional sunbathing and swimming are allowed.

The beach is secluded and untamed, and it may not be suitable for families with kids or those carrying umbrellas. Accessing it can be challenging. Additionally, the sand is light and mixed with pebbles. As a bonus, there's a fascinating altar dedicated to Elios on the right side of the beach.

The beach has light sand with pebbles, and there is a small parking area next to a field with beehive boxes.

The beach has a nice mix of light sand and pebbles. However, accessing it can be a bit challenging as both the car and foot routes are difficult to navigate.
