Write your own reviewHave been here 2x consecutive years now in May. The first time in late May and then we had plenty of sunshine and the sea was cool, but fine for swimming. The sea water is always clear here too and the beaches clean. This year I was in early May and it was still cloudy at times and had a few days of rain. Nevertheless, I did get sunburned. In terms of temperature, it was fine.— This text is automatically translated to English
