    Tip: try the waves first yourself....

    A realy nice beach with sometimes big waves. They come from behind, front and the left. Our youngest is 6 and I had to hold her cause the current is quite strong. Use your head and you ll be safe....

    Beatiful place, we were there in low season and there is'nt lot of people. Blue sea and big waves - but it was doable 😃

    Beach day!

    Beautiful beach, just out of the main town well worth a visit. The waves and currents are strong. I would only advise competent swimmers to get out their depth.
