Calm, nice seabed. We don't go there for the culinary tasting but it does the job for the day. Rustic comfort but with the advantage of being far from everything.

Superb place!!! The owners are super welcoming and available, I would even say very attentive to customers. The place is incredible for club and snorkel diving when you are not an expert. We eat well there, we feel good there. There are showers and toilets without toilet paper however. The beach is magnificent and the sunset is splendid. Thanks to the whole team!!!
