The award winning beach is mainly coarse sand and stretches for 3km, which means that it never gets overcrowded.
The bay is protected by high rocky headlands covered with olive and lemon groves. There are some very spectacular walks through the surrounding countryside but make sure you have good pair of walking shoes... and also a good supply of insect repellent! There are several supermarkets in the resort which stock the majority of holiday requirements.
