Remote gorgeous beach - we went on saturday at 10.00 - enough parking places still - walked down (there is also a bus) - super pretty, we rented beds (12 euro for 2 beds + parasol) - 2 bars available (go to the big one, avoid the one at the entrance)

Really nice clean pebble beach with clear water. Although the car park was full there were plenty of other placed to park just off road at the top. There was a minibus which will take you down and return for a small fee. We walked which took us 18mins at a slow pace. Coming back took us exactly 30mins. We were carrying small tent and beach stuff. We ate at the far side restaurant which was good. There are no public facilities such as showers or toilets. All in all a nice quiet day.
