Nice Clean beach. It has the blue Badge award, so you know its safe with a life guard normally on duty 9 - 5. We did think that the price of 10 Euros a day for 2 beds and a brolly was expensive, and.... more

A beautiful sandy beach with clear water. Clean, tidy, and very quiet. Not many kids! Only downside is the sun beds could be a little more comfy.

I like this place, although there’s not a long sand beach. However the water is so cool and clean! You can rent two sunbeds and 1 umbrella with 7€. Or just use yiur own towels! Enjoy!

Great place for a beach day. Extremely clean, good toilets, life guard & first aid, and a very good snackbar with fresh food (gyros!) and drinks. Two sunbeds, a side table, and umbrella for 10€ a day in June. The sea has a marked area with no rocks, calm water, and a long shallow entry. The rest is a bit more wild and rocky. Lots of locals and families. Parking is free and plentiful.

Loved it here. The water is shallow and there's mostly sand. We came here at around 3 p.m. and there weren't many people, mostly locals. Would recommend climbing the rocks to the east for a great photo spot.

One of the beaches that we stopped on while beach hopping through Heronissos and Malia. A beautiful beach that was much quieter than the beaches in central Heronissos and Malia. Beautiful sand and clear water with a couple of rockier areas.

Nice free beach, the sand is soft but there are rocks in the seaside. There is a lifeguard and, I suppose, sun umbrellas in the summer season. In end October the weather is like in spring, so fresh but nice. It’s possible to have baths but you have to be a warmly people.
