About this beach
Melissa is exposed in the maistros — often choppy on summer NW/W afternoons. That comes from the measured shape of the coastline around it and our curated wind records — a seasonal picture, not a live forecast, so check live wind and waves before you go.
The bay at Melissa opens to the west, so it usually has natural cover from southerly, south-easterly and south-westerly winds.
Melissa has sand underfoot with shallow, gently shelving water.
For amenities, Melissa has natural shade and parking nearby. There is a campsite nearby (Camping Melissa, ~398 m).
