Best time to visit
Arrive before 10 a.m. to enjoy the quiet harbor and empty alleyways. Try to be around in late afternoon for the daily fish auction.
Budget tips
Entry is free, and there is no admission for the beach or harbor. Park in the free lot outside town, bring your own snacks, and skip restaurants near the marina where prices are noticeably higher.

About
Quick facts: Canals run through the heart of this former fishing village, earning it the nickname 'Little Venice.' Colorful houses climb toward the white church while fishing boats unload their daily catch at the small harbor around late afternoon.
Highlights: From the winding coastal path, you can watch the morning fishing boats return to the tiny harbor and buy straight off the deck at the afternoon fish auction. A profusion of bougainvillea drapes over footbridges and whitewashed walls, making every canal corner look hand-painted.
Insider tips
- Wear sturdy sandals for the pebbly beach and the steep, cobbled streets.
- For the best canal photos, climb toward the church plaza near sunset when the light softens.
- Skip the midday cruise crowds by approaching along the coastal footpath from the neighboring resorts.
- Visit the Sunday market early to dodge the busiest foot traffic and grab the freshest local produce.
