A beach with an unusual mythical past
The rest of the coast is called the Cyclops Coast. Not surprisingly, this part of the beach looks gloomy, the entire surrounding area is characterized by the presence of a large number of rocks. For many years, nature has carved massive stones from the solidified lava mass. The result is these whimsical and slightly depressing stone monsters. Although the local legend associated with their origin sounds much more romantic. And yet you cannot take away its charm from the beach.
