Its geography is a very closed bay, with calm but very cold waters, suitable for water sports, frequently visited in the summer. It has numerous restaurants specializing in seafood products and diverse hotel offerings, operating all year round, but mainly occupied in the summer season. During the rest of the year, its main productive activity is artisanal fishing, with picturesque boats.
