A narrow, sheltered inlet with a small bay used for swimming and diving. A Knights-era watchtower from 1661 guards the entrance and is linked to the bay by a path.
Good to know. The tower is run by volunteers and opens only on select days.
We do not list opening hours or prices here because they change. The official page has today's.
