A hard-to-reach beach with a sunken cannon

A small pebble-and-some-sand beach in the centre-west, with deep, crystal-clear water. On the seabed near the centre of the bay lies a sunken cannon, visible to snorkellers.

Notoriously difficult access: a dirt road, a downhill path and a rocky descent aided by fixed ropes — not for families or the elderly. No facilities.
