The environment is completely natural and uncontaminated, out of the chaos. The beach has an extension of about 150 meters and in the first few meters near the shore the water is low and the seabed is sandy, therefore perfect for those with small children to keep under control. On the side of the cliff and a few meters away from the shore the water has a depth of just over 2 meters which also allows to jump from the cliffs.

The water is very clear and clean and you can practice snorkeling and admire the marine life, that is very rich and prosperous especially near the cliffs. The underwater landscape is breathtaking and enchants everyone with plenty of colors.
