Coast/Beach
The beach of Tirant is at the entrance to the village, which is a fifteen minute walk away. It comprises a small serviced sandy cove with a bar and restaurants and a further longer sandy unspoilt beach with loungers available in high season accessed via a short decked and stepped pathway. Both are excellent for swimming and are safe as they are gently sloping with soft yellow sand. Behind the main beach no buiding is allowed so it is particularly tranquil, with wide views of the countryside.
