This beach has a great seabed, perfect for diving, and there's even a beach bar for a bit of fun.

This beach is quite pleasant, however, due to the presence of rocks, I can only give it four stars. There are also tamarinds providing some shade.

6 Pleasant

The sea appears to be clean and the Meltemi wind provides a pleasant respite from the sun, while the trees offer shade. Unfortunately, there is a lot of garbage on the sand and an abundance of plastic in the water.
