My partner and I have been here a few times and have always found it very quiet and peaceful (probably the main reason we visit.) The water is very shallow a long way out, which makes it ideal if you have small children.Note the beach has a lot of small rocks and other beach debris at the waters edge, so be mindful of running into the sea. It's also a very open beach, so it traps the wind. I've seen many people chasing inflatables, unbrellas and towels down the beach!!

Beautiful, worth a visit!!! The black sands and white cliffs make for a striking view.

Loved this beach, where we found a parking spot we walked down a short ways from the cliff down to the water.It was right below a restaurant who sold chairs and umbrellas for 2.5 euro a piece.The water was nice, not too crowded, had a reef for snorkeling and the sand / rocks were easy for your feet to enjoy the waterThe food at the restaurant was nice, they bring food down too I believe because someone had a menu.

We had a great time there i like this beach i will be going in august or july or even june i think but this beach is very good you should go to this beach if you like beaches that has peace or anything else, i think its fun there and you should go there 100%.

A relaxing place with nice views. Thought you need to avoid looking at the industrial site not to ruin the beauty of the landscape. We went there on 8th of April but it was a bit chilly, still it’s worth the visit.

This beach is a long-time family favorite. We usually dine at Sophroniou Fish restaurant, then enjoy the beach for a while below the restaurant. The beach here is small, with dark sand, and not overcrowded. A very nice place to bring children to visit the beach so you can watch out for their safety, and not lose them in a crowd. The restaurant provides a place to change, and outdoor shower/foot washing station for when you're done.
