The beach is pleasant and there are some dining options in the vicinity. The sand is light and there are pebbles scattered throughout. If you head towards the southern end of the beach, the sand becomes more comfortable and enjoyable.

The waters of this beach are so clear, you can practically see the fish checking out your swimsuit. It's a great spot for anyone and everyone, but especially for those windsurfing enthusiasts who like to catch some gnarly waves. Highly recommended for those who want to experience the ultimate beach day.

A remarkable spot to witness the breathtaking sunrise. The beach is quite average with a blend of sand and rocks. One can find solace under the lush green trees offering ample shade. The beach is always bustling with people and I even spotted some tents pitched on the shore, which indicates that camping is allowed.
