The sea floor is similarly pebbled, with depth increasing gradually as one moves away from the shore. This configuration supports moderate swimming conditions, though the pebbles may require a towel for comfort during sunbathing.Swimming and shore

While the shoreline is composed of pebbles, the beach bar located nearby offers a relaxed atmosphere with cocktails and seating. Reviewers have highlighted the area as a top spot for swimming, though the lack of direct beach amenities means visitors should plan accordingly for comfort on the pebbled shore.Facilities and activities
