Beautiful landscape, wide beach, easy access, good services, plenty of parking (although in season it may be difficult to find), fine, clean sand... what more could you ask for...

Semi-virgin beach that can only be reached after a walk or by boat. The bathroom seems a little dangerous but it is an ideal place for a day of excursion.
