Last bus stop - 26. Walk through the pines which are part of the equivalent of a UK SSSI site, stunningly beautiful, and out onto the beach. turquoise sea, clean sands, great cafe/taverna and little kiosk for those sudden cravings like chocolate!! really clean toilets and changing booths. what more do you need???
