    Highlights

    • In autumn, the lagoon behind the beach is filled  with flamingos, which migrate, and use it as an intermediate station for about 2 months.

    • The castle at the south end of the beach is ideal for hiking and is by far the best place to admire the round shape of the beach from above.

    A beach that needs no introduction. It is considered among the most beautiful beaches in the world thanks to its round shape and its crystal waters.

    It owes its name to its shape and then to a myth of antiquity where it is mentioned. According to him, Hermes stole the oxen of his brother Apollo and hid them in the cave above the beach,as afterwards and in order to grasp his angry brother, he took from the beach the shell of a sea turtle and made from it a musical instrument,as the music  is known,to tame the wild.

    The beach retains its eternal natural beauty since it is protected from human interventions since the whole area is integrated into the network Natura 2000 as a place of special natural beauty. If yet not convinced, look at the pictures.

    Please ,have a look !
