Afandou Beach

Ah, the beach. A place where one can bask in the glory of the sun and observe the wonders of the marine life below. This particular beach boasts crystal clear blue water, perfect for those who want to take a peek at the underwater world. The sand and small pebbles are a unique mixture, but fear not, for the latter allows one to sit without getting sand in their swimwear. However, be warned, the descent into the sea is quite rapid, so if you're a weak swimmer, you might want to stick to the shallows. Shower facilities and changing cubicles are conveniently located along the beach edge. But beware, for the bunkers scattered along the beach are strictly off-limits. While the beach itself is kept immaculately clean, the surrounding areas are unfortunately littered with plastic bottles, boxes, and debris, which is a sad sight to see. And to add insult to injury, stray cats prowl the area in search of food. Oh, the joys of nature.

If you're seeking tranquility and serenity, this beach is the perfect destination. The lack of large crowds and blaring music is a refreshing change of pace. While there are limited amenities, such as a solitary beach bar, a handful of umbrella rental spots, and a couple of cantinas for refreshments, this shouldn't deter visitors from enjoying this hidden gem. The water is crystal clear and typically placid, making it ideal for swimming or simply lounging on the shore. Even the locals frequent this spot, indicating that it's a well-kept secret worth discovering.

The vast expanse of the beach is adorned with natural rocks, providing a picturesque view of the sea. The water here is known to deepen quickly, which might not be a favorable aspect for children. However, the beach offers a stunning sunrise view that is sure to leave you mesmerized.

The serene and vast stony beach offers a tranquil escape from the bustling city life. The crystal clear blue water adds to the charm of this natural beauty.

This beach is a perfect spot for those who seek solace and a glimpse into history.

The beach stretches out for miles, providing ample space to find the perfect spot for your relaxation.
