6 Pleasant

The absence of a lifeguard, coupled with the challenging access to the beach, made for a less than ideal experience. Additionally, despite being advertised as a designated swimming beach, it did not meet the necessary criteria. To add to the inconvenience, the beach was located adjacent to a construction site.

This serene beach is nestled far from the hustle and bustle, offering an idyllic escape from the crowds. The panoramic vistas are simply breathtaking, making it the perfect spot for camping and immersing oneself in nature. However, it's worth noting that there are no restroom facilities or sources of water available, so come prepared.

The charm of this place lies in the vast expanse of sandy beaches and the endless sea that stretches out before you. There are no distractions, no other sights to see, just the serene beauty of the beach.

This serene beach has a breathtaking vista of the Mediterranean Sea. It can be conveniently reached by car or bus and is relatively unspoiled. While there are no rocks to navigate, there are also no lifeguards on duty. However, the beach is merely two blocks away from a supermarket and several restaurants, making it an idyllic spot for a peaceful day by the sea.
