Bit crowded but really nice
Definitely worth visiting as it’s a truly beautiful bay with lots to do. Would recommend exploring with a paddle board, since the nature around the “wilder” areas is really scenic. It’s surrounded by hills full of pine trees yet it’s really accessible since you can drive all the way down. It’s also a popular area for yachts. The water is really deep but it’s not intimidating since the beach is a bit of a bay, it’s curved so you don’t feel as if you’re deep in the ocean. It starts off turquoise in the shallow bits and then goes deep navy. The beach has large white stones so it’s a good idea to have shoes for that - on the plus side there’s no sand to clean before getting back in the car. If you don’t find free sun lounges to use, there are small areas under the trees on the right side of the beach where you can put a towel down and enjoy a quieter and cheaper version of the beach. Would recommend having shoes that are meant to go in the water especially in this case since it makes getting in and out of the water much easier.

Astonishing
Astonishing beach. But make sure that you bring your own food and drinks because the prices at the bars are ridiculous. This beach has also a watersport place where you can rent a jetski or other activities which is great when you are tired of lying on the beach.
