Admire the colorful houses perched on cliffs, surrounded by vineyards and olive groves. Take a dip in the crystal-clear waters of the Mediterranean Sea at one of the village's small beaches. Enjoy a delicious seafood lunch at a local restaurant overlooking the sea. Don't forget to try the famous local specialty, anchovies.
