About
Quick facts: The paved shoreline walk stretches roughly 2 kilometers and is covered in intricate mosaic tiles that depict marine life and local legends. More than 100 ceramic panels and hundreds of painted flower pots line the route, turning a simple seaside stroll into an open-air gallery.
Highlights: At dusk the low sun hits the tiles and the blues and greens glow like the sea itself, deepening with every passing minute. Count the ceramic fish hidden among the wave patterns, 43 of them are scattered along the entire walk, waiting to be spotted.
Insider tips
- Wear shoes with good grip, the smooth tiles turn slippery after a light rain.
- Bring a camera for the decorated tile benches, many hide quirky ceramic sea creatures in their designs.
- Skip the midday heat in July and August, the exposed route offers almost no shade.
- Pause at the small wooden lookout decks that jut over the water for unobstructed sunset photos.
