A magnificent place for swimming with outdoor showers and benches to put your things down, it's a paradise! I went there with my best friend and we had a great time!

A small beach hidden behind a wall, easily accessible, there are steps leading into the water and from the last step something like steps to the pool. They were slippery and covered in algae, but with a little caution nothing terrible. Up behind the wall you can shower with fresh water. There weren't many people here even on a hot day, maybe because of the lack of sand and service in the form of refreshments and sun loungers, but for introverts and individuals who like peace, it's a nice choice.
