A small rocky islet on the Tricase coast north of Tricase Porto. It lies close to shore but should not be presented as an always-safe swim target: distance, currents, wind and boat traffic change conditions.
Practical information checked for access, setting, safety and services. Information checked against current local sources; parking, access and sea conditions remain variable.
The islet is separated from shore and is not a normal pedestrian destination. Swimming across requires calm conditions, strong ability and attention to distance and boat traffic.
If an access point is closed or altered, do not improvise shortcuts: use authorised routes only.
Exposed rocky coast where water may deepen quickly. Currents, wind and boat traffic must be assessed before any swim across.
Before moving away from shore, identify a safe exit point and do not enter if waves or current exceed your ability.
Not a first choice for small children: rock, depth, paths or sea access require experience and constant supervision.
Before planning the day, consider access, distance from services, crowding and how easy it will be to get back.
No dedicated parking is guaranteed. Park only in authorised spaces and expect summer pressure.
Do not leave valuables visible in the car and do not occupy verges, access points or unauthorised spaces.
Trails, rocks or sea access make the place unsuitable for wheelchairs, pushchairs and reduced mobility.
If you have specific mobility needs, check before leaving whether the route is genuinely usable that day.
Do not cross in rough sea, wind, poor visibility or boat traffic. Always consider the return and avoid unstable rock.
If signs or barriers on site are more restrictive than this guide, the instructions on site always take precedence.
Information checked against current local sources; parking, access and sea conditions remain variable.
Check the date of the notice: a temporary measure should not be interpreted as a permanent rule.
Best for nature, hiking, photography and protected coastline.
Before deciding, pay particular attention to the access and safety cards, as they can completely change the experience.
Less suitable for small children, non-swimmers or anyone wanting a supervised sandy beach with easy entry.
If one of these limitations is decisive for you, compare a nearby location before setting off.
Water, sun protection, optional water shoes and a parasol if no shade is available.
Keep your phone and documents in a waterproof case and carry your gear in a compact backpack.
