This beach is our favorite destination. Although the ascent may be challenging, the left path offers a convenient set of stairs at the bottom.

This so-called accessible beach is a mere speck of sand, hemmed in by towering cliffs that loom over you like judgmental parents. Oh, and let's not forget the stunning geological formations that are sure to make you yawn with boredom. The sea may be calm, but it's also infested with kelp, which is about as appealing as a mouthful of seaweed. I suppose it's a decent spot for families with little ones and the elderly, but for anyone with a shred of adventure in their bones, this place is a snooze-fest.

The picturesque village is a sight to behold, but regrettably, the beach is teeming with youngsters and lacks the presence of vigilant lifeguards.

This pristine beach is a serene haven that isn't overrun with crowds. It seems to be a favorite among the locals, as I've noticed more of them than tourists here. Additionally, there's a free parking lot conveniently located on the main road above.
