This 5km stretch of sand sees relatively low visitor numbers, making it easy to find somewhere to sunbathe or go swimming. It's a standout beach, with pretty, white stretches of sand along a sleepy length of coast with a range of accommodation options and restaurants backing onto it from the nearby village.
