About
Snabba fakta: On the shore where fine sand mixes with pebbles, the sound of the waves blends with the resinous scent of pine needles. The shallow shoreline offers a safe area for children to play, while the tall rows of pines cast dramatic shadows for photographers.
Höjdpunkter: The combination of salty air and the strong smell of pine resin creates an incredible cinematic atmosphere as the sun sets in the shade of pines reaching 20 to 30 meters. According to local fishermen, at small festivals held in July sometimes up to 50 family members gather to repair their nets together, and this ritual shows the intergenerational bond formed with the sea.
Insider tips
- Wear sturdy shoes for rocky paths and forest trails, not just flip-flops.
- Head to the western cliff viewpoint for sunset photos, and the eastern shore for quieter swimming spots.
- Bring a sun hat and insect repellent if staying into evening under the pines.
- Arrive early on hot summer days to secure shaded picnic spots and avoid peak crowds.
