This is a great little island with plenty of activities to keep you busy. It's definitely worth a visit!

This place is absolutely amazing and definitely worth the 45-minute walk (and a bit of a climb down at the end). I visited on a July weekend around 9:00-9:30am and there were only a few people there at that time, making it very peaceful. The snorkeling was great as well - the water was shallow but there were plenty of fish to see. I even spotted three octopuses very close to the shore. In my opinion, it's even better than Calangue d'en Vau, although it's a bit more humble and smaller. Just make sure to bring plenty of water in the summer (1.5-2 liters per person), especially if you plan on continuing on to d'en Vau.

This beach is nothing but ordinary, nestled in a bay with water that is crystal clear. If you're lucky enough to arrive early, you might be able to snag a spot by the water, but don't count on it. The beach is mostly covered in pebbles, making it difficult to set up your own umbrella. There are some amenities available, such as a toilet, beach showers, and a bar that serves food. However, be prepared for the crowds. This place is incredibly popular during the summer season, and it can get pretty hectic. If you're looking for a peaceful day at the beach, this might not be the place for you. We found that arriving at 9 o'clock in the morning was the best way to avoid the chaos. All in all, it's a beautiful place, but don't expect a stress-free day at the beach.
