Tips

After crossing the pedestrian bridge, you reach the station and ticket office for the narrow-gauge railway. You can walk the 1.5 km to the beach, but the few euros are definitely worth the fun of riding on this old railway. It's a relic from the good old days when tuna fishing was still possible here and the railway served to supply the tuna factory on the island. It's nice that it's been preserved.
