  • Small picturesque cove, beautiful rock formations. When we visited it wasn't to busy. Nice cafe just before the beach. Lovely place to spend a couple of hours.

  • Eye-catching brown sandy beach with plenty of space for sunbathing. Bars, shopping malls, restaurants, and Ice cream shops are within walking distance. Mineral water showers, changing rooms, and public toilets are available. Parking will be tricky; therefore, I recommend parking in your hotel and walking downhill to the beach. The promenades are impressive, offering a lovely view of the open Atlantic. The rock formations are places to take profile photos. Also, there's a small cave nearby to explore. The water is cold in June, but you can still go in for a swim! Bring your beach tennis gear to play on the beach. It is a fun activity.
