🏨Where to stay
Studios for budget families and a calm resort row south of the village — the best western base mixing sea and excursions.

The public beach packs with local families on weekends — socially lovely, calmer midweek.

Halal & prayer places: Fair — declared halal spots near the public beach and a big supermarket for self-catering; hotels accommodate with notice.
