it Mare cristallino tra due piccoli promontori, ci sono anche naturali cumuli di posidonia, ma l'acqua a riva è bellissima

it Molto bello paesaggisticamente. La sabbia è sottile, bianca e pulita. È esposto a maestrale e di conseguenza le mareggiate portano a terra tanti legni e Poseidonie che coprono parte della spiaggia,soprattutto in inverno e all'inizio della stagione estiva. C'è la parte destra a ridosso del vento. Si può camminare comodamente nel bagnasciuga. Non ci sono servizi di nessun genere.

it Spiaggia molto bella, ma di non facile accesso visto il divieto di sosta su entrambi i lati dello sterrato che porta al campeggio. L' acqua è pulitissima, ma purtroppo nella cala più piccola ci sono troppi micro frammenti di plastica

it Spiaggetta apparentemente bella ma estremamente isolata. Poco frequentata, quasi deserta con la sola compagnia dei corvi gracchianti. Brutta esperienza con meduse in mare... Scomoda da raggiungere senza mezzi propri. C'è di meglio.
