This beach near Costa Calma is absolutely stunning. It's quite windy, making it a popular spot for skilled wind-surfers and kite-surfers. The beach itself is spacious and stretches out for a long distance, providing a wonderful view of all the wind-surfers in action. It's a truly pleasant place to visit, especially if you enjoy taking leisurely walks along the shore.
