This beach on the northern part of the island is one of the best hidden spots. The water is crystal clear and there's plenty of wildlife. You'll need to take a short trek through the woods to get there, but the views are outstanding. It's a great spot for couples or small groups, but families with children may want to avoid it as some groups consider it a nudist beach. The parking situation is a bit tricky.

The beach is easily accessible and offers a stunning view with a relaxing atmosphere. It is recommended to wear aqua shoes when exploring the cave due to the abundance of rocks.

After an unsuccessful first attempt, we eventually found the cave and had a blast exploring it. It's a perfect spot for taking photos, but be sure to wear water shoes as there are many sea urchins around. The walk can be a bit tricky, so take your time. It's an excellent place to escape from the scorching sun. To reach the cave, you must pass the pond area on your left and follow the rocky path along the wall. Keep following the path through the brush and almond trees until it veers right. Continue on until you reach the end, where you'll find another quiet pond and the cave. Please remember to take your trash with you when you leave.

This beach is truly remarkable and appears to be less crowded than others. We stumbled upon it by chatting with some friendly locals. After parking, you can take a scenic trail that splits in two directions. If you take the right fork, you'll arrive at a more bustling section of the beach where numerous people gather for picnics. However, if you opt for the left fork, you'll discover miles of beach that feature both sand and rock. The vistas are breathtaking, and the number of visitors is minimal.
