A nice restaurant at the marina, overlooking the sea. 15mins from the town. They serve breaklast, lunch & dinner. Kid-friendly place with good wi fi. Tasty food & even better beer.

Bravo! Here, fish is prepared with attention to detail, it seems as if it has been caught directly from the boat, and the chef has been practising his craft for 45 years. Wonderful seafood, one in a million. The service was very friendly (and patient ;-), no one speaks English, so it's better to have a translator with you. But we had a lot of fun and the location of the restaurant is magnificent. Thank you folks.

This is a quaint restaurant by the harbour. Have the seafood. Pasta and pizza can be had anywhere else. The service is prompt and professional. A very busy spot. Fills up quite quickly. You might be turned away depending on the time you show up.
