This beach restaurant enjoys an ace position right on the beach. Avoid those predictable international offerings on the menu and ask for the fresh fish dish of the day (the owner's son owns a fishing boat): sea bream, calamari and whitebait are all good options. Sunbeds and parasols are rented for €5.
