"Parking lot was already closed, so be as early as possible here. There is a small parking lot on the opposite site as well. A lot of rocks so if you are searching for snorkeling and sun bathing, this is not the right place for you."

Jul 15, 2026"Extremely disappointing. Parking is very limited; we were lucky to get a spot. Those who didn't had to walk for 30 minutes, and it's all downhill, so the walk back up isn't pleasant. Even with a parking spot, you still have to walk a bit afterward, 5-15 minutes depending on the location. It wouldn't be the end of the world if the beach were nice. The beach itself is small and made up of large, sharp rocks, making it impossible to lie down and barely finding a place to sit on a rock because it's so rocky (again, not the end of the world, it's a cove, so that's to be expected, but don't get your hopes up). Getting into the water is difficult because the rocks are covered in very slippery moss. The worst thing about this beach is the water, which is full of trash, including a lot of plastic. The surface was absolutely disgusting. We went to splash around and came right back, just like most of the other people who were going swimming. The reviews don't seem to mention it much, so maybe they clean it regularly and we just happened to be there, or perhaps the wind was stronger today, blowing the trash around. The view isn't even that nice. We wondered why so many people went there, but it must be because people are so keen to go to the sea and don't know the downsides of this beach, and also because there aren't many beaches on this stretch of coast. The water is turquoise when the sun is shining, but not when we were there. We saw disappointed families coming back from the beach. It was really sad for the little children who had walked for a long time and barely had a chance to swim or relax on the sand."
