It is perched on a cliff above the Mediterranean Sea, giving visitors stunning views of the clear blue waters below.

Check the Conditions tab for current wave height, swell and wind. Review the Quality tab for the latest Environment Agency classification. Always read recent community reports for local knowledge.
