The terrain concists mainly from golden color sand – that is why it is also known as Golden Sand Beach – and a few small rocks.
There are lot of sunbeds and umbrellas, but if you don’t like to pay there is space for your towel mainly on the right.
On the left side of the beach near the small church you can rest and enjoy the view under the shade of a few trees. There is a cave also to explore.
