Spiaggia molto bella. Peccato l'invasione delle alghe, dovuta sicuramente alla temperatura dell'acqua che era caldissima, bar e bistrot in posizione ottimale, sotto gli alberi e panoramica, dove con un po' di pazienza è possibile pranzare con vasta scelta.

This is one of the worst and ugliest beaches we have ever seen. The whole place was completely covered in sea grass and it was a huge disappointment. Even Nissi Beach, which we really do not like because it is too crowded and nothing spectacular, is five times more beautiful than this. If you want to see something actually nice, go to Malama Beach, and especially Vyzakia Beach. Those two are the most beautiful beaches we have seen here so far.
