A beautiful coastal hike with crystal-clear water. You can get refreshments at the restaurant, which also has a small beach. The official trail is easy, but it gets a bit more challenging later on; good footwear is recommended.
Very pretty and easy to make
With a group of four families, we finished the hike in about 4 four hours, including a small picnic 🧺. Beautiful scenery
